I'd disagree in terms of the cloud capabilities. When it is used properly. The cloud stuff is very useful. I currently have a document that is going through multiple versions with about 8 people, with different expertise collaborating. Some have edit privs, some only have review. The ability for everyone to work on it simultaneously, with version history and no more document-v12-copy3_FINAL_FINALv2 is most welcome.

This is why Google Docs was so revolutionary... In 2006.

I cannot understand why they haven't got more traction today.

If you heavily rely on Word and PowerPoint. I know several companies that almost never use those products except in limited situations (legal, keynote presentation etc). All "regular" discussions/presentations take place on Confluence/Notion/Quip etc. I wish my company did the same thing.

Multiplayer PowerPoint is the single largest advance in the business world since the spreadsheet.

If used properly.

The ironic thing about satire is that sometimes it is very difficult to tell apart from the thing being satirized.

So, like, was that satire? I got a good laugh out of "Multiplayer PowerPoint" either way.
