It looks like Google is launching a Google Doc offline version. Some people have been seeing a screen shot of the live offline version. This should be a big step forward to take on Google’s rival Microsoft.

There is as usual no official word from Google because they like to sneak out secrets and make a hype of them and then make a private invite for a year. After they let everybody wait people are like kids on Christmas for the new application.

Don’t expect to see the new offline version yet it is still in a beta testing mood but at least it’s on its way. Even if it is not good it will make Microsoft lower its price for Word
