So the aim is to have something really simple first. The next features will certainly be a link with Basecamp, Backpack and Google Docs,

Yep, I could see this being pretty useful if it was easy to load documents to and from Google Docs. Part of the reason I say that, is simply because I use GDocs as a sort of lightweight DMS for my startup related docs in general... but also because the Fedex Online Printing service has a built in hook to GDocs, to make it easy to retrieve docs for printing.

Yeah, yeah, I know... "paperless office" and all that. But there are still times when you want hard-copy, and being able to pull stuff over from GDocs to Fedex, submit the print job, and then pick it up at the Fedex store, is pretty handy on those occasions.

The hook on both side of Gdocs is definitively something we would consider. But I don't know yet how Gdocs copes with header and footers. We'll discover that soon I suspect ;)
