Microsoft Office Web Apps

If you’re a student, you have probably faced the issue of sending assignment or project files from your computer at home to someplace else electronically — to print off, share or work on further. There are a number of methods that you can use, like USB drives, or littering your inbox with emails to and from yourself. However, they are often troublesome, especially when you don't know what kind of computer you are going to be accessing the files with next. They also make collaboration very challenging.

Luckily, Microsoft has introduced Office Web Apps and Windows Live SkyDrive, so you can access and edit files from anywhere you want ! This is has proved to be one of the most useful applications of the cloud. You can save your documents to your SkyDrive, by selecting Save and Send and then Save to Web. Now you can access them from any computer. Your files are safe and accessible. You can also share your files with others, even if they don't have Office installed on their computer yet! They can use Office Web Apps to edit your project and communicate with you others about it.

Try it here ! All you need is a Windows Live ID and you`re good to go!
