Hey Alex, I should have mentioned that as an example. Like you two, my fiancee and I have been all over Google Docs for the last 12 months since we started wedding planning. Just over 1 month to go!

So true! My fiance and I, especially with wedding planning, are thriving off of Google Docs. Life saver!

Hey Andy, agreed, however I’m not trying to say that Google Docs should be replacing internal document management systems. Instead, it should be used for non-sensitive group tasks to drastically improve efficiency. Think of the amount of redundant small group meetings that occur in government and could be avoided through collaborative tools like this.

I think the Twitter fiasco – where a hacker got access to sensitive company info via Google Docs – has thrown a lot of people off of using the tool. It’s an overall problem with the “cloud computing” mentality; access is less controllable than with a closed in-house intranet.
