Google Writely

Google recently put out a new online beta called Writely. It's a free browser based word processor, sure to heat up their battle with Microsoft even more. The weird thing is I don't see it on labs.google.com, and it doesn't have the typical Google branding. I found out about it from a weekly CMX web development email newsletter I'm subscribed to, where they noted: Writely is an online word processor that lets you store files online so that you can edit and/or print them from anywhere you have an internet connection. It seems compatible with just about any type of format that you'd expect from a word processor, and lets you download files in pdf format, Word format, RTF, HTML or even Open Office. You can also upload pictures to be placed into your documents. Looks cool to me, check it out at www.writely.com.
