Personally, I'm not much of a fan of cloud crap, (especially when they try to tie monthly fees to it)... but it has its uses.

For example, I mostly use it for my ebook changelogs.

I can easily keep the latest up-to-date links/URLs up top + all the latest typo corrections. Anyone with the link can see the latest version. I can login to my phone and do a quick little update.

Would I type my entire book on it? Probably not.

Would I use it to easily share + get comments on the text? Yes.

Would I use it for minor files (like changelogs)? Yep.

Would I use Google Docs as an intermediate format and F-up my Styles? No.

Anyway, they're becoming larger and larger pieces of the market, no doubt about that. While typical desktop-only is shrinking.

(Same with desktop usage in general. It's being DWARFED by mobile devices.)
