Handy, very handy. Especially if you are someone whom needs to move around a lot of computers (always keep several steps ahead, people. never linger to long at one base or the feds will catch up). It saves valuable brain space that was, until now, taken up with remembering things like site names and web addresses, and can now be used for remembering usernames and passwords instead!
Will write more when I can explore further from a computer that lets me install the buttons!

Back from outer space (and google)
Once again I find myself with a lot of catching up to! Whilst I have found some time in my busy schedule of world domination to do a few of the weekly activities, I have not yet blogged them - the other astronauts tend to get a bit snarky about people hogging the bandwidth in the shuttle - something about tying up essential survival comunication lines. Blah, blah.
Google docs are great. Very, very useful, as I could start penning a manifesto on home ground, them continue it while in zero gravity, without taking so much as a memory stick (the luggage restrictions on those flights aren't to be believed!). I can see how all kinds of people and professions will find google docs very handy indeed, including those in libraries.
Also a fan of google maps - which got me to a location I had previously been unable to find.
Google book search I love. How could you not? All the handy little accessories, like the reviews, the previews, the buying links, etc. Bibliophiles plaything!
The igoogle page I also thought was pretty great, as google is my personal homepage anyway. so having the accessories right there on the page is pretty damn handy. Again, lots of stuff to play with. Personally, loving google recipes, and, as mentioned above, google book search.
Yay google, go google. I like it so much I may buy it.
