It definitely fills a space between Google Groups and Google Pages which has been severely lacking.

According to InfoWorld, JotSpot would have struggled to be a viable business. But together with Google, it’s a perfect “Office 2.0″ venture. InfoWorld also notes that Microsoft (or WordPerfect/Novell) has been supplanted by Google, an upstart, in terms of mindshare. There’s little doubt that most people find Google’s products much more appealing than Microsoft’s.
