Writely: Collaborative web word processor

WritelyWritely is a web-based word processor (one of the pieces in Jason Kottke's WebOS) that allows you to edit documents collaboratively.

Update: If you want to take Writely for a spin, Marc Orchant over at The Unofficial Microsoft Weblog is handing out invites to collaboratively edit a document using Writely.
