actually that is partial truth and not the whole truth. users were right,
google does not support ODF totally. gmail has a very nice feature - when an
email has an attachment, you could simply click on it and a preview will be
open. you could go through the preview and decide if you want to download it or
not. this preview feature is supported for ".docx",".xlsx", .doc. .pdf but not
for ".odt,.ods". so from this you could come to a conclusion that google does
not support ODFs.
however, if you save the file into google drive and then try to convert it, it
is possible to do so even with ODFs. so, google drive does support ODF.
as i was saying, both were partially correct.

amen to that!
