Google just blew my mind. Again.

Google Spreadsheets.

Okay, that's pretty cool. I think I might change where I store my record collection.

yea, i was fiddling around with it a couple months ago... really interesting..

for a long time i was confused as to google's direction... they seemed to be all over the map with what they were doing as far as google maps, google talk, google drive (or whatever the online storage thing is called)...

but now their business plan is becoming clear to me.. they want to integrate everything together for one online experience...

for example, if you're working on your spreadsheet and save it to google, you just go into GMail and go "i want to give these three people access to this file.. bam bam bam.. done... now i want to tell them about it... *click* (starts google talk) yo, check out the file"... yadda yadda.. they're trying to make a business network online that is as simple to use as a local business that is run from one office..

i was scared for a while.. thought google might have got in over their heads.. but i'm really coming around and starting to like their direction..
