#18 Web-based Apps: They're not just for desktops

I like the idea of GoogleDocs and other Web-based applications. My favorite feature in GoogleDocs would have to be the online calendar. Many applications, including email have a built-in calendar which is great if the person you want to shanre the information with is also on your mail server. Google Calendar makes a calendar which is available to anyone (or anyone you wish to share it with). This could be highly useful for groups or families that want to keep a schedule in this oh-so-online-interconnected world.

Another popular product is Basecamp. It is an online project management tool, similar to a wiki in ways, but it allows you to attach documents or proofs of a project and comment and leave notes for the group to follow along.
