For those of you who are not aware, Google Docs are a free service from
Google that allows multiple authors to collaborate synchronously or
asynchronously. There a word processor, a spreadsheet, and presentation
package. While not as full featured as MS Office both the feature more meet
most needs. 

I've been fascinated with Google Docs and am looking for more ways to use
them more in the classroom. So far I have students working tip sheets
together and a group exercise where students enter in the names of various
pizza parlors then vote on them by placing their name in the same row. 

How are others using Google Docs.
