They should just make a really good Google Spreadsheets.

What do you think is needed in order to make a good web-based spreadsheet? Where do you think Google falls down at it?

(I work on spreadsheets and find this very interesting.)

They fail in their importXML limit to 50 queries They fail in their limited feature sets that make it not a true Excel replacement They fail in their inability to perfectly past data from Excel

I still use the Google spreadsheets all the time, but as a quick and dirty version of excel with importXML ability
