Google Gives Office a Ticket to the Cloud

Today Google announced Google Cloud Connect for Microsoft Office, a tool for users of Office 2003, 2007 and 2010 to sync their docs to the Google cloud, share and edit them, all from within Office. Not sure how this is meant to stomp Microsoft users into submission-slash-conversion, but presumably the Google cloud is better than the Microsoft cloud, and the product is just entering its preview phase, so perhaps more will be revealed.
