Google has let their on-line, collaborative spreadsheet application out into the world. So far, it looks fantastic. A good, solid set of features (less than Excel, but it's the stuff we need 99% of the time). For basic, day-to-day spreadsheet tasks, it's quite capable. Additionally, it can read and write Excel files, so that 1% of the time, when some heavy calculations or advanced features are required, the same spreadsheets can be tossed into Excel.
The best part is that this is a collaborative application. Spreadsheets can be edited by several people at concurrently. They even thought to put a little chat window in there to keep the authors' interaction easy.
It's still in limited availability, so if you need in, just ask me nice.
