Google Online PDF Reader

Instead of loading up bloated Adobe Reader or other alternative software on your computer, Google has added the ability to read PDF files natively in Google Docs. It also allows you to reference a URL and open the file within a browser.
Previously, Google has provided a way to read PDF in HTML view, but that was iffy at best, as the formatting really got mixed up. This new inline reader in Google docs maintains the PDF formatting fairly well.
Added bonus: the reader allows you to select text and copy the contents.
Look for this feature to be integrated into GMail soon, I’m guessing.
