Please don’t send me Microsoft Word documents July 29th, 2007

Sending a document in a microsoft word file is not the best way to share documents. "Please don't send me Microsoft Word documents" is a simple site giving the load-down as to why sending Microsoft Word documents is not the best way to share documents.
This site provides information about sending documents under the headings:
* Why it's a bad idea to send Microsoft Word documents
* Alternatives to sending Word files
* Converting Word documents to other formats
* MS-Word is Not a document exchange format
My favorite way of sharing documents, now, is by using the share option when writing a document in Google Docs & Spreadsheets. Everyone has a browser and sharing a document via Google Docs is as simple as reading a website in a browser, and what is more there is the word processing tool right there to make changes if that is what you want your readers to do.
