There's a great article on Ars Technica about the way Word is no longer the right tool for most of the communication we do in an office setting. I particularly like this quote:
Like many conventions of society (such as mutual gift-giving) we keep doing things in a certain way simply out of habit, long after the original need (a barter-based economy) has vanished.
Not being bound by the past is hard.
