Google Docs is a free to use, Web-based word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, form, and data storage service offered by Google. It allows users to create and edit documents online while collaborating in real-time with other users. Google Docs is Google's "software as a service" version of an office suite.

Documents, spreadsheets, forms and presentations can be created within the application itself, imported through the web interface, or sent via email. They can also be saved to the user's computer in a variety of formats (ODF, HTML, PDF, RTF, Text, Word). By default, they are saved to the Google servers. Opened documents are automatically saved to prevent data loss, and a revision history is automatically kept. Documents can be tagged and archived for organizational purposes. The service is officially supported on recent versions of the Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari and Chrome browsers running on Microsoft Windows, Apple OS X, and Linux operating systems.

There is a limit on how much a user can store on their account. At the moment, individual documents may not exceed 1GB, embedded images must not exceed 2MB each, and spreadsheets are limited to 256 columns, 200,000 cells, and 99 sheets.

Google Docs can also be access on your mobile device. Depending on the mobile device and Operating System you're using, you might be able to access, view, or edit your Google documents, spreadsheets, presentations, as well as files uploaded to Google Docs. To get started, point your mobile browser to GoogleDocs .
