The merger of the Twin Towers - Facebook and Microsoft took the stage to another level to launch an online version of Microsoft Office software - called Docs.com.
Similar to the Microsoft Office application that you use normally, this online version will allow users to create, edit and share Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents online, just like Google Docs. Built using Microsoft Office 2010 - Docs for Facebook allows users to work from just about anywhere with the familiar Office experience.
The collaboration between Facebook and Microsoft will enable them to take on the powerhouse - Google. Facebook will provide the social networking element whilst Microsoft enables the advanced word processing capabilities.
Currently, this service is only opened out to Facebook users - sadly for those without a Facebook account. The service is still currently in beta stage, though.
