My biggest hesitation in using these 'free' services is what's the catch?

Maybe it's because I used to be responsible for data security on government systems, but I wouldn't want to be putting any business information on these sites or any other Internet-based service.

Of course there isn't

BTW in this case it seems that Google is fulfilling the Microsoft dreams...

I remember before many years (about 8-10), Bill Gates said in an interview that in the future the Office suite will be an internet service, and the user will be paying as using it. Back then this heared too strange and none could possibly imagine how this could be done, but now Google has allready did it
