Have you been wondering whether Microsoft’s upcoming online version of its Office suite will be able to fend off the challenge from Google Docs? Well, you’ll be able to find out first hand now, as the software giant has announced that Office Web Apps on SkyDrive is now available to everyone in the US, UK, Canada and Ireland, though there is also a separate link for folks who don’t happen to live in those regions. Once there, you’ll be able to upload, edit, and create Word, PowerPoint, Excel and OneNote documents directly from your web browser and easily share them with your friends. Are you planning to check out, and possibly use, Office Web Apps, or are you perfectly happy using Google Docs at the moment?
