Google Spreadsheet Available for Limited Test

Holy collaborative spreadsheets Batman! Looks like Google is getting on the killer app bandwagon with their new spreadsheet offering. It's only available in their lab environment to select invities. From the announcement and the google blog post, it looks exciting. I especially liked this bit:

Real-time collaboration: Google Spreadsheets can be
shared, updated and edited by several users at the same time, in
real-time, saving users from the hassle of manually consolidating
multiple spreadsheets from others. Users can also chat while editing or
viewing the same spreadsheet and control who may edit and view their
shared spreadsheets by listing the specific people by email address.

This has me feeling almost prophetic. If google comes out with a private label version, I may never use Excel again.
