Wish to create a word file but do not have a Ms Word in your computer. I came across this site (Writely) where it provide web based word processor service. You might wan to ask me what is Writely? The explanation that i get from their website is :-

Writely is a web word processor that provides simple and secure document collaboration and publishing on the web using only the browser.
1. First, you create a document:
– Either by typing it in, or by uploading a Word document, html, text or image file.
– Use our editor to format the text, add tables, images, etc.
2. Next, you share it with others:
– Enter people’s e-mail addresses to grant them access to the document.
– Send them a message from Writely to tell them about it.
3. Then, you can edit it together online:
– If another person starts editing the same document, a small notice will appear.
– Your changes will be automatically sync’d with theirs every few seconds.

They provide a collaboration feature where you can edit the file with your friend at the same time. This collaboration feature really good! Besides, There is also another feature which allow u to publish ur file to blog. (Haven’t try this feature yet).

Let me introduce u all the next generation of web application – The Web Base Messenger System. This website allow you to connect to Yahoo IM, MSN, AIM or ICQ, Jabber or GTalk. The interface design looks great! Although this website is still under alpha release, it works fine! Everything run in one page. Yes, you are right they r using AJAX (Asynchronous Javascript And XML).

This service will be very useful when you are using a public computer where there is no Instant Messenger installed (ex: Yahoo, MSN, etc).
