Google online workbooks

Google will release an internet-based workbook at nine o'clock A.M. on Tuesday, US east time.ProgramTo extend the tentacles to Microsoft's main office software, especially the Business Map of desktop spreadsheet excel, the competition between the two will become more intense.
Jonathan Rochelle, product manager of Google workbooks, said that the workbook released on Tuesday will serve as a part of Google Labs, supporting the. xlsformat and. CSV format used by excel.s.
The premise of using workbooks is that the PC must be connected to the Internet and pre-installed with a browser. You do not need to download any program to your computer, which avoids data loss caused by hard disk errors or power outages. Google workbooks allow multiple users to browse or edit tables at the same time. Their names appear in the chat window. Users with Google accounts can use this service.
The workbook service also supports automatic saving. Once data is saved for the first time, every modification to the table is automatically saved. In addition, data transmission, row and column insertion and deletion between cells in a Google workbook are easy, and multiple tables and tabs are supported.
