Thing #13

Thing #13

At times it is easy to think that as a Microsoft office user you have been spoiled by the features that they provide. With the distribution of more and more web 2.0 tools like zoho or google docs I think that idea is being eroded. For this post to my blog I am trying to push the envelope and am creating the blog via zoho and posting it from here also. For this test I could just try a simple post but I want to see just how well it can do it and I want to see how it will look both here in the web app and also in the blog.

The fact that this web application gives me the ability to post my documents publicly and share them with other users really highlights the potential of web based office applications. Rather than emailing copies of the document for editing and then ending up with multiple copies allowing others to edit at one central location means that they would have the original with the edits. Everyone would know if it has been edited or not and have access to the latest copy.

The only downside I can see about the web app is how it handles spell checking. click once to check the spelling click again to turn it off (yes I think I have been spoiled by Microsoft).

Edit Via Blogger: Apart from removing some extra space and adding this edit the post, including image, worked perfectly.
