Thing 20 - Thinkin' Free

Crikey. ThinkFree Office is really a posher (and therefore slower) remake of Google Docs. I like the look of this environment, with its fluffy white clouds in the background. Its compatability with existing Word files is neat, too. Now all I need is for it to work at the pace to which I have become accustomed.. i.e. without having to wait for 10 minutes. I'm still not all that keen to entrust confidential information to a cloud-friendly site, either. But this is (probably) the office of the future. Enjoy this rainbow of irises, discovered a few days ago. Yes, they are all irises.

Thing 19 - Google Docs

I haven't felt the urge to delve into 'Cloud Computing' until now, as Microsoft Office is installed on every machine I use. And I have access to the work department shared drive as well as my H:Drive via the internet. Google Docs makes it easy to create and share "documents" outside the department environment. What a good tool for collaboration. It's simple to use, so there's no need to procrastinate. The web-based application overcomes software compatability issues, and it's beautifully portable. But you might want to avoid adding confidential information, for obvious reasons.
Phew, we've had a scorching few days over here. Wonderful.
