Affiliate Millions: Make a Fortune using Search Marketing on Google and Beyond

I recently read an article in which the author suggested replacing traditional word processing with MS Word or the software of your choice with Google Docs. The author argued that using Google Docs can help with productivity in cases where a single document needs to be reviewed edited by one or more people other than the author, as is the case with a great number of the documents written up on a day to day basis in the business world. The basis for this comment was that Google Docs has a collaborative function built in, and that using it over traditional word processing could help alleviate the back and forth sending of emails and attachments that has always come along with collaborative writing. I thought the idea was intriguing and decided to check out Google Docs for myself. I was quite pleasantly surprised.

Google Docs offers all the features necessary to draw up most types of documents you’ll write on a day to day basis. It lacks many of the features of Word 2007, but only those that are there as an extra convenience without being really necessary. If you’re coming from Word 2000, you probably won’t notice anything missing. You can save in a variety of formats including .doc, open document, PDF and HTML. You can upload documents from your computer to edit and you can send documents by email or publish them right from the online interface. The feature that really makes Google Docs worth using though is the sharing function. Once you’ve created your document, you can share it with others and invite them on to be contributors. Those added as contributors can then edit the document directly from their own Google account. Of course, as the “owner” of the document, you have the final say on edits. The value of this is that now on a document that might require three or four revisions from one of more people other than the author, the author of the document can simply upload or write their document in Google Docs and then invite in the editors or reviewers as contributors to the document. This could save a ton of back and forth emails with edited drafts attached, helping reduce the inbox clutter that often goes hand in hand with collaborative writing.

I’d suggest anyone that does any volume of writing check out this app., as there may be times when it makes your writing process significantly easier. By simply logging in with your Google account, you can access this useful web 2.0 app. completely free. I’d say this one is definitely one of Google’s winners.
