I haven't seen much hype (yet?) over ThinkFreeOffice Online, the web based suite of Office like applications. Reminds me a whole lot of Writely.com. I set up a "free" account with 30 MB of storage at the site that is still in "beta". The first glance looks pretty slick. I tried out ThinkFree Office Write and it has the exact look and feel of Word. However, it appears to lack some of the collaboration features of Writely.com – they may be there and I just haven't found them.
Here are some quick features I found interesting:
- No software to download
- Create and store new files within the web browser (Java based) interface in common file formats
- Upload stored Office Word, Excel and Power Point files to view and edit
- Save as .pdf (but doesn't look like you get a URL for each file like Writely.com – could be wrong . . .)
- Save to blog feature (but didn't see an RSS feed for each file like Writely.com)
That's all I know for now. Here is a link to a Writely vs. ThinkFreeOffice comparison for more opinions. I'll keep testing it and report back how it goes.
