Everyone keeps talking about web apps and how great they are. But I keep wondering: how many people use them, which web apps do they use, which ones have actually replaced their desktop alternative? How close are we to using productivity web apps in a mainstream fashion?
So, what do you think? What web apps do you use in your work routine? Which web apps have beaten their desktop alternatives?

jottit.com (better than Vim, OpenOffice, MovableType or Google Docs for compiling a set of notes about a subject over time. See http://nixcommands.jottit.com for an example)
http://tmedweb.tulane.edu, sort of a corner case, but I think there might be a lot of room for this sort home-spun productivity site for a few hundred people.
