Google "Office" Released

The design has also changed to match the look of other Google services." The more "applications" I try forcing into a tabbed web MDI model under a Mac, the more clumsy it gets. They aren't in my Dock, they can't be apple-tabbed through. Issues like this really frustrate me as I find myself wanting to use more web2.0 ajaxy fancy pants programs.

    What a wasted post. You don't like it? Fine! Don't use it. But to come here an moan that it doesn't fit on your Dock, and you can't tab through the applications is a waste of Slashdot space. If enough people don't use it then Google will have to make it more user friendly. But the fact that you're on a Mac makes you a very small minority voice at best.
