spreadsheet

June 6th will see the limited beta preview of Google's online spreadsheet program made available from the company's Google Labs development section.

Spreadsheets can be powerful tools, and particularly so in the hands of an expert user. A spreadsheet can be used to reorganize data and to extract information not otherwise available. For example, at a client site, an application report generates a listing of hourly billing, but can't give the cross-reference totals desired.
