Google said on Monday it is taking the next step to make its web-based software useful in the real world of spotty internet access by allowing users to edit word-processing documents offline.
The world’s top internet company said it will begin over the next several weeks to allow users of its Google Docs word-processing application to edit documents without an active web connection, on planes, trains and other disconnected spots.
The offline feature of Google Docs temporarily stores document changes on a user’s local computer. Once reconnected to the internet, any changes the user made will automatically be synchronised and stored on Google-hosted computers.
