ThinkFree Office Online

Here is another free, online office-like application that looks and feels like Office. A basic account is free. You just need to create a username and password--just like you would for a free email account.

Here are some details from the ThinkFree site:

With ThinkFree Office Online you can :
  • Create Microsoft Office-compatible documents from the Web.

  • Open and edit your Office documents anywhere and anytime.

  • Create powerful Web presentations using a familiar interface.

  • Add flickr photos to your documents.

  • Post ThinkFree documents directly to a blog.

  • Convert your existing documents to PDF format, simply use the Save As PDF
    function in the File menu when saving your document.

  • Save your documents in ThinkFree Office Online. You can create, read and revise your documents anytime and anywhere you want. If you save your documents in a secure Web storage account provided by ThinkFree Office Online, you can access and edit them at school, home, work or anywhere else you can think of.

  • 30 MB of free storage.
