I'd love to see usage statistics of these two Google products. I suspect that Google Maps gets a lot of use while Docs not so much. Google maps seems to me to be the perfect internet product. It takes advantage of the internet's multimedia capabilities, it provides access to far more material that any competing format, there are few privacy issues, and most importantly everyone will find it useful at some point. It's one of my favourite web products.
Docs on the other hand is markedly inferior to its offline competitors in regards to its functionality, and perhaps most crucially there's the privacy issue. Who is going to trust their business reports, latest novel or memoirs to Google when pc based word processors and spreadsheets are so easy to come by? Still, it wouldn't be the first time I've been wrong.
