Google docs (well, spreadsheet to be precise)

I get a call the other day around 4:30pm from a rather upset woman. "The document I was working on has disappeared. I have been working on it all day". So I turn the car around (I was almost home) and trundle back into town. Her laptop was a little iffy so we rebooted it it and she loaded up the document. It was blank. "There" she says. "Its gone". "Not to worry. Its a google document. If it was microsoft you would be stuffed but watch this" I say, feeling a little smug. I click into revision history, go back to a save made 60 seconds before the last one and there it is. Back in all its glory.

And once again, I'm the hero of the day.
