MonkeyTeX
When I'm not at my laptop, without a TeX installation, I use a very nice think, called MonkeyTeX, which is an online LaTeX editor, check http://monkeytex.bradcater.webfactional.com/ .It's free and amoung other things, permits collaborative work, since you can give permission to other people edit your file.
Learn LaTeX easily with newest books:
The LaTeX Beginner's Guide: 2nd edition and perfect for students writing a thesis
The LaTeX Cookbook: 2nd edition full of practical examples for mathematics, physics, chemistry, and more
LaTeX Graphics with TikZ: the first book about TikZ for perfect drawings in your LaTeX thesis

MonkeyTeX
I've tested MonkeyTeX a long time ago. It was looking nice, I remember. But some things are looking odd to me. There are big slogans on the homepage like "Be great!", the homepage looks like it's been made by a good advertising company, but there's no more information than just a link to a demo screencast. It's "brought to us" by a company I could not find information about. I wonder what their reasons are.
In general I would be careful in giving personal documents to online services. At least if they contain personal data like an address or just some information I don't want to publish (yet). But it's useful for testing.
By the way, I've listed some more online compilers for LaTeX. If you know other compilers I would be glad to hear about.
Best regards,
Stefan
