By the end of next year Microsoft will launch Microsoft Office Web Applications, Internet service, which means that the Office programs Excel, Word, Powerpoint and OneNote will be available online for free.
When you are traveling without a computer, you can sit on the hotel computer and then access your documents and edit them. You will also be able to share documents, so that your colleagues, family or friends can go in and read or edit online. More people will be able to work with the same document simultaneously, for all could see, when there are changes.
Thomas Floberg, who is Product Marketing Manager for Microsoft Office said, "All the basic editing functions are included in Web applications. The only thing that should be on the computer you are using is a browser: Firefox, Safari or Internet Explorer."
Like Office Live Workspace, the Office Web Applications will be completely ad-funded, so they to you as a consumer, is free.
