With Google Docs & Spreadsheets, you can:
• Use our online editor to format documents, spell-check and more.
• Upload Word documents, OpenOffice, RTF, HTML or text.

• Invite others to share your documents by e-mail address.
• Edit documents online with whomever you choose.
• Publish documents online to the world, or to just who you choose.
• Post your documents to your blog.
This creates a powerful online collaboration tool, and also allows you to upload documents and store them on the Google servers.

Another trick - You can upload documents in various formats and save as a new format such as PDF.
