Wow, I have just checked this out. Holy disruptive innovation, Batman,
this
thing is going to rock Microsoft's world. A company called ThinkFree has
gotten ahead of Google and Sun in terms of getting OOo online!!! It
really
is kinda freaky. You can test it by going to this link
http://www.thinkfree.com
and clicking on the online test. You must have a Java Runtime
Environment,
which my SuSE 9.2 didn't have by default install (my fault, I guess) but
SuSE 10.0 does have it.
The way this thing works is remarkable. It basically produces an OOo
page
that you can work on just as if it was running from your own computer.
It
is a bit slower, though. And I can imagine that if their server gets hit
hard, you might lose docs, etc. But at least it is real! And the
service
will doubtless get better once Sun and Google get behind it and bury
ThinkFree forever. Heh.
I have a question to this list: Do we like ThinkFree? or are they
schmucks
like Luxrsty (I deliberately misspelled their name to make them not
searchable)
well thinkfree doesn't support opendocuments, and they havent given back
to the community, they are also bought by handcom so who knows whats it's
future (hancom also have an office suite).
