Google Docs

I have begun to use google docs for documents that I need to have on every computer, so that I don't need to carry them around on a flashdrive or worry about what the latest version is if the doc is on two hard drives. I just log into my blogger account and find my docs under "My Account." I can even edit them on the ipad, which otherwise lacks a suitable word processing program (at least my ipad does, so far.) I can upload an existing doc to google docs or else create one from scratch.

Check out my friend Oliver Reichenstein's Writer for iPad:

I haven't used it, but I know three or four iPad users who swear by it, and who were all quite pleased and surprised to hear that I knew Oliver from when he was a German literature student in Basel.

I can't seem to edit documents on dropbox on my ipad, only read them. I am going to check out the app developed by Andrew's friend.
