User upload docs

I suspect this falls under the category, "in your dreams, hire a developer" but it's worth a shot:

I want to create a site ex. widgets.com
User uploads a word doc about widgets
Uploaded doc can be edited with basic functionality (similar to Google Docs)
User now has a page all to their own
User receives a url that he can easily share ex. widget.com/SamsWidget

Resume sites do something like this. Is there any service I can subscribe to or purchase that can perform this function for me? If uploading a doc is problematic, I could go for copy and pasting as long as the formatting is intact and the user gets a url to their "page".

Thank you

    If copy/paste is acceptable, WordPress will fit the bill.

      Its not possible to update document without google doc plugin, but if you can develop your own google doc like plugin it would great feature to add your self.

    Not sure anything fits your description exactly without some tweaking but Zapier is pretty darn close.

    Many people have used this to integrate G-Docs with WordPress and then use some custom actions/triggers/cron jobs to add functionality beyond just embedding.

    There is also this Gist which was used for something similar. It would need some updating as it's 2yrs old.
