I've just remembered and checked
Google Docs - it seems pretty good, and amazingly it does save to PDF,
as well as Word, RTF, and OO.  It even does presentations that you can
save to PowerPoint!

I wonder if anyone is using it?

I have heard that Google Docs is popular in tertiary education, where groups of students work together on projects. Especially in distance education, all the work is done online, with the final product saved to PDF or presentations or whatever is needed to turn in as the assignment. For a group project, that's a lot easier and more efficient than emailing files back and forth.

And Google Docs also saves to OpenDocument formats.
