Blog entry


Wow! I used Zoho Writer to create this blog entry. Zoho appears to be very flexible, offering everything from creating documents to project management and website creation. There are several commendable points:

  • Documents created in Zoho are accessible anywhere you have access to the Internet. No need to save things to a thumb drive or email. However, as has already been mentioned, docs on the web are still 'out there' in cyber-space so who knows what is really safe or protected.
  • Tags - rather than creating folders for storage and wondering which folder is more intuitive for saving item, just tag it with multiple tags and it will in essence appear in both folders 'caused you can search by tags rather than folder names.
  • Format - no more worrying about Word versus Word Perfect. At least, that's what the theory is...hard to know without testing.
  • Easier than Word to include pics , emoticons laughing, etc
  • It's collaborative - it was easy to create this entry and invite my sister via email to share her comments by giving her read/write access.
  • Interesting that it has a "Print using PDF" option. Would be nice to have a "Save using PDF" option.

I'm so glad you liked using zoho! I LOVE the tag feature, isn't it great?! Ha ha, web 2.0 is infiltrating everything...even our simple word documents.

You really hit on some great benefits of zoho. Great job!
