Have just created my first google doc. Uploaded a song I wrote from my PC. It's in Spanish and I was very pleased to see that I culd do a spell check in Spanish! something i couldn't do on Word. Would be handy feature for files created at work or home where you have different versions of programs and sharing docs or spreadsheets without having to carry around a memory stick too.
Google Maps - have used these a number of times to check out addresses and even looked at my house and street a few months ago. Another thing I like about google maps is when you get the red markers indicating where places are on the map, as it did when looking for a brunswick hotel. I have used this feature when looking for real estate.
Google Books - looked up a few of my favourite egyptian books and a few other topics. Found it useful to get not only the book information but which libraries I could borrow from. Looks like a great feature to have for people who want to find out some information about a book before buying or borrowing.
I can't think of a more global word than google at the moment. I have a few overseas friends who when we talk about information we always mention finding it on google even when not speaking in english, so maybe it is like MS but without the pricetags.
