Microsoft’s document sharing service, Docs, is available to everyone

Microsoft's generic picture of overly happy people sharing files on Docs

Sure, you can technically use OneDrive and other cloud services to share your Office files, but wouldn’t it be nice if there were a dedicated site for that? Apparently, Microsoft agrees — it quietly launched the public beta for Docs, a dedicated website (this was previously a Facebook-only service) that simplifies sharing your Office files, PDFs and Sway presentations. Think of it as a parallel to offerings like SlideShare or Scribd, where the focus is more on preserving the formatting of your work than anything else. You can comment on and download documents, but you’ll have to turn to other tools to collaborate on that upcoming report. You only need a Microsoft account to give Docs a spin, so it won’t hurt to sign up.
