The project I am working on (1200 days so far) uses it for group planning/scheduling. it works quite well since we have team members in North America and Europe that update it plus hack at during weekly planning sessions.
If you send emails unencrypted I'd say the US government reads all of them anyway, apparently the Europeans too. Also unless you encrypt your hard disk with PGP, and if the law enforcement folks seize your computer everything is readable in any case. Privacy,... no... In any case I can't recall hearing about someone casually being able to read other people's google based documents. Which is more the issue. However one link says: "Google Docs & Spreadsheets does not default to an encrypted HTTPS connection beyond the login screen, though text documents and spreadsheets can be optionally accessed through HTTPS." In checking that I could change (by hand) http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key= {no encryption} to https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key= {encryption} and continue working with an encrypted SSL link, which I'm sure our governments can read, but not my neighbour. Other questions not asked is will the data disappear? Likely it's safer than an average home user's storage environment which consists of a sole copy on a sole hard disk waiting for fire/water/theft/Trojans/ disaster and 12 year olds sending it off to never never land.
