I ran across this story on Techcrunch. It states only about 0.5 percent of people are using online Word processors like Google Docs.
The numbers don't surprise me. I was a bit skeptical myself, but I have been using Google Docs for about 3 or 4 mounts now and just love it. Basically, its an HTML based Word Processor that runs in your browser. Its reasonably fast, does everything I need, and allows me to store all my documents on the Internet. Thus I can get to them no matter where or what computer I am on. Plus, I can export any document to Open Office if I need to do anything "fancy".
The numbers are not big right now, but pretty soon, in the near future, all of our desktop office applications will run from our browser.
