Wozniak Goes Dancing

He made the news last week with the announcement that he was joining Fusion-io, and now Steve Wozniak has made headlines again, ready to answer the burning question – can geeks dance?

ABC has given the lineup for its new season of Dancing with the Stars, and Wozniak’s name is there, having signed up for the show, along with such luminaries as former pop stars Belinda Carlisle and Jewel, and one-time Bond girl Denise Richards.

It’s a far cry from designing the inside of the first Apple computer, or starting the company in 1976 with Steve Jobs.

For the last few decades, Microsoft Word has been the de facto standard for word processors across the working world. That's finally starting to shift, and it looks like one of Google's productivity apps is the heir apparent. The company's Google Docs solution (or to be specific, the integrated word processor) is cross-platform and interoperable, automatically syncs, is easily shareable, and perhaps best of all, is free.

However, using Google Docs proves it still has a long way to go before it can match all of Word's features -- Microsoft has been developing its word processor for over 30 years, after all, and millions still use Microsoft Word.
