Think you need to spend $300 for MS Office? Think again. Google Docs, one of the world’s first online Office Suites now lets you more than merely edit snazzy documents- you can store oodles of them on the web. Kiss those thumbdrives goodbye. Now everyone can collaborate on your latest poetry online.

From what G spokemen say, Google Docs will allow users to upload any type of file – music, photos, graphics, zip files, and more – into their accounts. The file size tops at 250 MB and there’s a bare minimum 1 GB of storage space coming with the account.

The luxury of storing files online has been here since Yahoomail. Remember back in 1999 when we e-mailed important documents to ourselves? Google Docs expands on that. The service goes beyond mere attachment file storage. It’s now a fullblown collaboration tool. Through Google Docs, others that you allow access to the file can go in and make changes without anyone having to worry about which version is the most recent.

Way to go google. Every idea you have is gold.

Except perhaps for that pagerank thingy.
