I'm not hugely excited about Google products in general due to their corrosively broad erosion of privacy in society (same thing goes for Facebook's platform in my opinion). But given that you've found Google Docs efficient for producing quality documentation, great. Having good documentation is really helpful.
However, I agree with Zhoyun Wei that I find the Google Docs solution difficult to search against all the beancount documentation when I'm looking for something. Is there an easy way to search beancount's documentation within Google Docs? Thanks!
