Thank you for your article coverage. BTW, EditGrid allow users to send invitation to their friend and we actually have a chat window. Although both items is bit hidden ;)

You may check them out :- the invite is at the site bottom where the icon to initialize the chat box is at the bottom of the spreadsheet. Thanks again.

Ok, I found the chat window -- very nice. Couldn't find the ordinary friend invitation function...

Google spreadsheets does allow freezing of header rows and columns. There are also embeddable gadgets that'll do charting. In fact, there are charts available now that don't exist in Excel.

There are things still missing, like locking out cells and whole sheets. You also can't link from one "workbook" to another.

Still a very useful tool for collaboration and also to embed into websites quickly and easily.
