Preezo is about to release a PowerPoint clone of their own, to join the likes of Zoho, Empressr, and Thumbstacks. This goes beyond Preezo, Google, and Zoho but is really showing us what the net is really capable of. The proliferation of Ajax seems to be pushing us closer and closer to a client-server world.
What you have to love about all of these web applications is the timing. Not the timing of the release of the apps, but the lack of timing on the part of Sun Microsystems (you know.. that stock that once traded at $80, but closed today at just under $5). Years ago, Sun's Java vision was that the Internet was going to be the computer. Unfortunately for them, Java applications were unstable, slow, and nobody had the bandwidth to run anything worthwhile.. until now. Where are the vocal privacy advocators on this issue? and why does is blogger's word verification so long?
