Google Docs makes creating and collaborating on documents, spreadsheets, and presentations simple. Not only can you create and edit your own docs, but you can also have multiple people view or edit together. With Google Docs, you don't have to manage multiple versions of the same attachment from different people. You always control who has access, whether it's just yourself, your team, or your whole organization. You can even publish docs to the world. The Google Docs web application is accessible from anywhere, and you can even sign in and view docs from your mobile phone.

Online document creation Create new documents from scratch, or upload saved documents from your computer. Edit your documents from any internet-connected computer.

Real-time collaboration Simultaneously work on documents together with others that you invite, even if you're not in the same place.

Revision history Individual edits are kept so you can see who added and deleted what, when.

Search tools Just like Gmail, with Google Docs, you can harness the power of Google search to look for a document you haven't edited in months.

Security and privacy You choose who sees your document, when. Other users can only access your document or presentation if you add them to the list of collaborators or viewers, or if you decide to publish the document. And administrators have the ability to set restrictions on internal and external document sharing.

Mobile access View your documents from your mobile phone.
