I’ve been fiddling with Writely lately, and think it’s very cool. Online, shareable word processing. Even handles (relatively well) both revision control and concurrent editing. Not quite as well as, say, SubEthaEdit does live multi-person editing.
Today, I also came across this: Google Spreadsheets.

The thing I don’t like about Writely is it’s inability to import Words formating propperly. I had a document with lot’s of numbered lists and dot points, and it just couldn’t import it unchanged, which menat a lot of messing around to get it write. If they can improve that function I’d be much happier

Thanks for the tip. I haven’t yet imported a document (I have done some copy-pasting, though). I think I’ll mainly use Writely for new shared documents, or ones that need a significant rewrite anyway.
