Can your spreadsheet do this?
Microsoft Excel can’t do this. Google Spreadsheets can’t do it either.
Enter EditGrid, who allows you to publish a live spreadsheet to the web or to a blog. Above is a quick example of a mortgage function using their software. Most of the other online spreadsheets are wholesale knockoffs of excel. Not so, with EditGrid, whose Hong Kong based team has come up with a number of features that are not present in Excel. These include:
XML/XSLT integration - which makes for some pretty
Real time online collaboration - so multiple people can edit the same document at the same time.
Integrated chat -
Easy links to online charts - like from those from Google & others.
Expansion thru javascript, not visual basic.
The spreadsheet is evolving from a solitary experience, perhaps joined by emails, to a collaborative one that becomes the basis for simple data storage, and transparent calculations.
It’s obvious that spreadsheeting will never be the same.
