one arm of google's many-pronged assault on microsoft dominance is their online word-processing suite, google docs. let me start by saying, i like it. i recall the old days -- like a month ago -- when i emailed a doc to myself to get something from my work computer to my home laptop. that system works. it's lame though.
now with google docs, i simply upload it and then access it from any computer i damn well like. beauty-full.
but before they fell microsoft office, they should probably get their programs to at least work together.
i wrote a couple stories and wanted to give them a quick, final read at work before i sent them off to my editor. so i uploaded them to google docs, read them over, made a few small improvements, and hit ctrl-s. then i went to email them and wondered how exactly to attach something on google docs to my gmail message. and i had no idea.
there may be a way, and if so, feel free to enlighten, but if there is, it's neither intuitive, nor obvious. so, vexed, i saved them on to my desktop, then attached them to my mail message.
lame indeed.
