Writely - web-based word processor

Writely is not a Mac app, but it is so innovative I had to post about it. It's a web-based word processor you use from your browser. You can create a document there or upload one - HTML files and plain text (.txt), Microsoft Word (.doc), Rich Text (.rtf) and OpenOffice (.odt, .sxw) files smaller than 500K, or Image (.gif, .png, .jpg and .bmp) files smaller than 2Mb. It also exports your docs as PDF.

One of the best features of Writely is that you can send an email invite to someone so that he or she can have access to the documents of your choice and you can both edit it.

PS: Site still does not work in Safari, so use Firefox instead and allow pop ups from the site so it works properly.
