Office Live Workspace - Office Meets SaaS
I'm also a very interested participant in the Office Live Workspace BETA currently underway. There are tons of applications for this service (see below) ... I am anxious to see how it's offered and how well it's received. Microsoft Office Live Workspace is your online place to save, access, and share documents and files - save 1,000+ Microsoft Office documents and files in one place and access/preview them from almost any computer, whether or not it has Office installed. Seriously, why even try Google Apps ? You already know Office and this new service only makes it that much easier.
