online docs

Online document creators are wonderful for certain things. I have used Google Docs a few times, primarily when I needed access to docs from a public computer.

But like wikis, there are some major ownership issues that everyone needs to consider. Every document I save in Google Docs is owned by Google. They have access to it, they can see it and if (god forbid) they go out of business, I may lose it.

I don't think it's a huge deal....Google owns all my e-mail too....but it certainly is something to keep in mind.
