Get started with Google Spreadsheets
Google Spreadsheets is a
web-based spreadsheet processing application that allows you to collaborate on
project spreadsheet documents from any location. Your spreadsheets are stored
online and can be viewed or edited by anyone you invite for collaboration.
Multiple collaborators can access the document from any internet-connected
computer, and edit your documents simultaneously in real-time.
- Share your project spreadsheets with collaborators in different parts of the world.
- Allow your collaborators to view and edit on one online document; this eliminates the problem of having several edited draft versions that arise out of email collaboration.
- Organize your project collaboration in one online location
- An on-screen chat window allows for smoother collaboration
