Normalize sending people plain text files instead of making them log in to proprietary services to read your two pages of notes.
There's zero reason to use things like Word or Google Docs for purely textual, written word.
There's zero reason why I should register with a service and use up a thousand (or more!!!!) times more bandwidth than I would if I downloaded your 2 kilobyte text file.
A direct link. Give me a direct link. Send me an email. Magic-wormhole it. Whatever.
Just be aware of the cost to the alternatives.
The fonts loaded by Google Docs alone could carry books and books worth of text. The javascript they push on end users itself is freaking massive.
Stop being sheep, use notepad.
