'Office 2.0' startups knock on business doors
One thing about ants are that they are easy to get rid of. Ant traps, exterminators, stepping on them, washing them away... so many choices. 'Office 2.0' will only have a following with one select group of users, and thats the college students. Even then students will be reluctant to use 'Office 2.0' because web based applications lack features, they don't want their documents on a public server, and as a college student they can get MS Office for free.

Businesses won't take on to this for almost the same reasons. They don't want their company sensitive documents on the internet or someone else's server and they don't want the burden of having a severed internet connection making them all unproductive.
