Writely.com

If you don’t have a decent Word Processor on your computer (probably most of you have Word), then Google’s Writely.com can do the trick. Tried it out today to type a letter - worked well - you can even save the file on Google’s servers, if you are so inclined (probably not a bad idea for all those who fail to back up their work). You can tag your work as well with multiple tags, so when you’re later searching for it, remembering a tag you gave it , is all you need to find it.
If you are trying to print something once you’ve composed it and don’t like URL headers or footers showing up on the printed page, then go to File/Page Setup in Firefox and click on the header/footer tab and select None for everything showing there. (probably works in similar fashion in IE). Picked this tip up on the Writely.com Google forum.
And hey, it’s free, so what the heck - try it out - nothing to download and if you hate it, well you didn’t have to pay, did you? 
Thanks for pointing this out. I’ve been playing with it all day and it’s very neat. What’s great is that I have two computers and can work on the same doc on either computer.
