Browser-based Word Processor

Writer is a browser-based word processor that offers the same kind of distraction-free writing environment as Darkroom, JDarkRoom and Writeroom.

In other words, it provides green text on a black background, and almost nothing else. Press F11 in your browser and Writer fills the entire screen (in Internet Explorer, anyway; Firefox doesn't disappear entirely). What's really slick is the way Writer's interface elements fade to become almost invisible until you mouse over them, at which point they light up. Equally impressive, Writer offers a built-in word count feature, a choice of text colors (including amber--wow, does that take you back) and even an export-to-blog option. You don't even need to register; the site relies on a browser cookie to remember you (and your documents).
