Skip the download go directly to Google Docs (firefox extension)
Continuing with the theme of viewing certain documents online (here and here) instead of downloading them, I just came across a Firefox extension that lets you quickly add online files (doc, pdf, xls, ppt and every Open Document format) to Google Docs. According to the developer:
You right click any document link on the web, choose “Send to Google Docs” from the context menu and the file will immediately open as a Google Document. The file also gets saved permanently in your Google Docs account.
Similar functionality has existed for a while now in Gmail for email attachments.
