I also have Writely account, but I don't use it. But I already set the same password for gmail and writely account, as they suggest in this post.

It will be really useful if you can open documents in Writely directly from Gmail attachment. But right now, when I have to download file and than upload it to the web service it easier to me to open in in a desktop program.

Ah Nice...

Wonder what improvements it'll bring soon.

They added a delete button a while ago, what will come soon will be integrating with Gmail account, or Google Account, as they said.

writely is very useful. For example, we (~10 persons) are currently trying to translate all Matt Cutts' videos. all on the same document, pretty cool, always up-to-date :)

I meant feature wise.

Thanks for the heads up. I don't know how much I'll use it, but I now have another Google tool in my tool-belt.

Sometimes I think we have the same outlook as someone that collects postage stamps or Coke memorabilia. We collect Google services. :)

-> does anyone know the how the meter is established ?? how does the ticker work!!

"Beta Meter: 62% "

   I think it is an average of the answers to the question that asks if Writely is ready to leave Beta yet. You get the question if you click on the meter.

I covered a little about the beta meter here. http://googlified.com/2006when-will-writely-be-ready

>>always up-to-date :)
I would like to have an option that enable auto-republish.

In answer to why the increase on the beta meter slowed down, I bet's its because there were less new people to vote as they weren't taking new people.

Every user gets one vote, If he/she votes yes to the question (about Writely being in Beta), they are taken to a Feedback. If they vote know, they just get a notification saying Thanks. You can change your vote anytime you want.
