Writely for Gmail Users

If you have a gmail account you are now automatically signed up for Writely, the on-line word processor that was bought by Google a while ago. Since it includes a spell check and other word processing tools, I imagine it might be handy for webwork. Especially since you don’t have to wait for a bloated program like Word to load (on that subject, for routine stuff I’ve been using notepad more and more lately — hey, remember when notepad was the software of choice for websites?). Anyway, I’d be curious to hear any impressions of Writely.

Update, 10.11.2006. Google has killed the Writely brand and wrapped it together with G Spreadsheets under the heading Google Docs and spreadsheets.
