Few months ago, Microsoft has introduced its Office package in Cloud computing space in the Internet viz., ’Office Web Apps’.

Those who have Windows Live account can use this package. Though, this Cloud computing Office package said to be available only in countries like U.K., U.S.A., Ireland and Canada, it is widely available in other countries too.

Along with usage of this Office package in Cloud computing, the user also gets free 25 G.B. of Online space through Windows Live account. This facility is considered equivalent to Office 2010 and it can also be used through your P.C., Phone and Web browser, Microsoft has observed.

Any file created through the MS Office, can also be edited / saved through this Cloud computing facility, besides saving the same in our computer. If your file has been created using earlier versions of MS Office, then also this Online MS Office in Cloud computing provides you with all editing facilities. Since, this MS Office package is available in Online through Cloud computing, more than a person can use or edit the document or file.

The user interface of this MS Office Online package through Cloud computing is very simple to use and it gives an experience of using MS Office in our own P.C.
