Google Enters Web-Office Market
jaiva writes "Google's official blog tells us that Google has acquired Writely, a collaborative word processor." From the article: "To be clear, Writely is still in beta, and it's far from perfect. Upholding our great user experience means everything to us, so we're not accepting new registrations until we've moved Writely to Google's software architecture. If you're interested in giving us a try, we hope you'll get on the waitlist so we can let you know when you'll be able to try out Writely."
They have stopped taking new users for now. They say that "while we're moving Writely to Google's software architecture, we're closing off new registrations." The integration will take time and effort, and the last thing they need is to be dealing with tons of new users wanting to be a part of the latest Google thing. That was a wise move.
