Google releases Cloud Connect for Microsoft Office
Cloud Connect is ready for prime time
Google Cloud Connect, Google's plugin that integrates Google Docs and
Microsoft Office apps, launched last November for a limited number of
users. Now, Cloud Connect is ready for prime time, and the plug-in is
available to everyone.
Google Cloud Connect for Office
Cloud Connect allows you to save your Office documents to the cloud, edit them in Google Docs, and sync the changes back to your desktop. It doesn't replace Office with Google Docs, but it lets people who aren't ready to make the switch to the cloud use both simultaneously. If you want, you can just use Google Docs for syncing, and do all your actual editing on your desktop in Word, PowerPoint or Excel.
Key features of Cloud Connect include simultaneous collaboration (with the ability to work offline and resolve conflicting changes once you reconnect), revision history, document sharing and, of course, cloud sync. Cloud Connect works with Office 2003, 2007 and 2010.
