I kind of hate Google docs, but that's because I write and keep my primary file in Word and I can't make the "Track changes" or "Merge documents" functions work with an imported Google docs file. It's possible I just haven't figured out the trick yet. :)
Be careful with bigger files. At about 27 pages (I don't remember how many words - 30K, maybe?) GDocs started getting fussy, dropping stuff, reverting to earlier editions, lossing chunks of text.
Breaking the (admittedly, epic length) piece into smaller files fixed the problem.
OMG I HATE THAT. In fact, when I beta, i pretty much do it in a word doc, because it's easier than making a beta comment and then having to go back and highlight it every single time. When I track changes! I'm always already in red!
Bah, google stop fucking with google wave and fix this glaring error! PANDER TO ME.
