I don't think its good news for Redmond based company. But that's Google. There is at least more than one web based office application is available like Writely (The Web Word Processor), and NumSum (Web Spreadsheet). Both are in beta stages. I personally worked on both of them and they have a long way to go. When I heard Google is partnering with Sun to make OpenOffice available online, I was thrilled. Its like if Google is doing something, it must be good. I don't know how long its going to take them to have a beta version out. I am waiting.
