So Why Not Try?

When I went to write about Thord Hedengren’s article in The Blog Herald, I found he had so convinced me that I had only typed three characters into WordPress before I thought, Why not write this post in Google Docs to see if you agree?

Great Find: Docs & Spreadsheets as a blogging tool
Permalink: http://www.blogherald.com/2006/10/24/docs-spreadsheets-as-a-blogging-tool/
Target Audience: anyone who uses word processing or blogging software

Content: I’m only this far, and already I’m saying, “Thank you, Thord.” This is so cool. The screen is brighter. I can see. I’m enjoying the experience like kid with a new toy. I can link to a URL, an email, a bookmark, or another Google Doc or Spreadsheet. You’ll be pleased to know THERE IS EVEN A SPELL CHECKER — it’s fast and painless.

As Google says I can “Create and share your projects online and access them from anywhere.” I can also post right from here to my blog, if I want. There’s even a Preview Screen. My only wish was that it didn’t save automatically, quite so often. Here are some screen shots of what I was looking at making this document. Click to enlarge the images to full size.

Read Thord’s review, believe what he says, and leave him a comment that says I agree.
