Google has been working on eliminating this limitation with a technology called Google Gears (Zoho Writer and a few other Web apps also use Gears – it’s an open source technology that any developer can implement). Like all online word processors, Google Docs has one significant architectural limitation: if you don’t have Internet access, your documents are completely unavailable to you. Its brilliant collaborative capabilities more than make up for its minimal feature set, and I have found it better for my needs than similar products like Zoho Writer and Buzzword, which don’t seem as focused on enabling quick collaboration. Although it’s a mediocre word processor, we’ve started using Google Docs for certain sorts of collaborative writing, such as when Tonya and I are working on marketing materials for Take Control, or when I’m writing an article for Macworld. It’s ironic that with all the writing I do, I’ve never settled on a single word processor, instead picking and choosing among lots of different ones depending on the task at hand. #1653: Apple Music Classical review, Authory service for writers, WWDC 2023 dates announced.1654: Urgent OS security updates, upgrading to macOS 13 Ventura, using smart speakers while temporarily blind.#1655: 33 years of TidBITS, Twitter train wreck, tvOS 16.4.1, Apple Card Savings, Steve Jobs ebook.#1656: Passcode thieves lock iCloud accounts, the apps Adam uses, iPhoto and Aperture library conversion in Ventura.#1657: A deep dive into the innovative Arc Web browser.
