New Online Resource: CompareMyDocs.com

As its name says, CompareMyDocs.com lets you, “compare,recombine and merge your document versions.” According to the web site, this is a beta release and it’s free, at least at the present time. CompareMyDocs.com “works best” with text only documents that don’t contain tables or images. Three format types can be compared at the present time:

+ .Doc
+ .Docx
+ .RTF

From CNET:

Just like TextFlow [a similar product from the same company], Compare My Docs color codes any changes it finds between the different revisions of a document and gives you a quick and easy way to accept, reject, or set aside a change. This means you can cruise through a document and keep the changes or revisions you like, while keeping an active log of what you don’t.

When finished, you’ll have a new version that has all of those changes, which can be saved either as a Word doc or rich text file back on your hard drive. Although unlike what you can do in TextFlow, with Compare My Docs there’s no way to publish the finished product to the Web or save it in parent company Nordic River’s servers for safe keeping; something that seems meant to entice users to try out TextFlow instead.
