Google Docs

Google's document sharing service is called Google Docs. It includes cloud-based tools for word processing, presentations, and spreadsheets. You can keep your documents private, make them public, or share them only with people to whom you grant access. You can even collaborate in the creation of shared documents. The spreadsheet service has an innovative forms feature through which you can create online surveys that prompt users to fill out forms and submit data that you can view as it is collected into a Google Spreadsheet.

To find out how easy Google Apps makes it to set up your own document sharing service, follow this link to the Google Docs tutorial.
