Google Docs adds templates
And lots of them — over 300. You can take a peek at them here.
The templates are a mixed bag. Some are decent, most are just blah. Not a whole heck of a lot in there for the writer, but I’m sure that you can modify any of the templates to suit your needs.
Using a template is simple: just select New > From template in the main Google Docs window. From there, you’re taken to the template gallery. Select the one that you want to use and do your thing. What I’ve been doing is starting out with a template, and saving it in a folder called Templates. That gives me easier access to the template when I need it.

I’ve been using Google Docs for a long time now, but I was never aware that they have templates available online. I usually just upload files from my hard drive, then edit the file when I need to. I checked out the templates and they are really nice, I can even use them for my presentations.
