I quit using Microsoft Office a long time ago. I don’t have a whole lot of use for an “Office Suite” at home, and OpenOffice.org handled everything I needed it to. When Google Docs & Spreadsheets came around, I gave it a try, and fell in love. There was now a way for me to edit spreadsheets and documents online from any computer.

Granted, Google Docs still had some limitations, and I didn’t (and don’t) want to post anything that had personal or private information. Aside from the PII, there were still some times I found working with OOo to be better than working with Google Docs. But then for some reason, rather than import my doc to Google Docs, I’d send it to myself via email.

Well, I read about a new OOo plugin the other day that sounds like it’ll make things better for me, especially when it comes to combining the Google service with the desktop power of OOo. It’s appropriately named OpenOffice.org2GoogleDocs.  It allows you to import docs, spreadsheets, and presentations between the two services.
