Next version of LibreOffice to be in the Cloud

Williebee · Mar 25, 2015

Collabora, one of the major contributors to the open source LibreOffice productivity suite, has announced a partnership with messaging-solutions provider IceWarp to produce a Web-based version of LibreOffice by the end of 2015.

This could be cool.

This seems like a solution in search of a problem. I like that the cloud exists, but I'm not sure everything needs to be there.

Does everybody realize how prescient the Greek dramatist Aristophanes was, more than two millennia ago, in writing a play about "Cloudcuckooland"?

Except for people with crappy data-capped connections to the cloud, which is a surprising number of people in the US.

Is there anything in technology -- or anywhere else under the sun -- that is "good" for absolutely everybody?

Not every tool fits every hand. Good news, there's a lotta tools.
