It looks like Google is jockeying for position to make a "go" at Microsoft Office. First, they acquire the online word processing application called Writely in March 2006, then they roll out Google Calendar shortly after that. Now they've introduced Google Spreadsheets in what they call Limited Test, which means that you can sign up to test the beta when it becomes available.
In addition to signing up for a limited test, there's a small tour available to check out some of the features; but it's still too soon to see how it compares to Microsoft Excel. However, I would imagine that the advanced features would be limited but that the basics are good enough for most people. I've signed up, so I'll let you know how I like it as soon as I can.
