Week 8: #19 "Web-based Apps: They're Not Just For Desktops"

I signed up for a Zoho account using my husbands e-mail from home. The reason being that you usually have to confirm your account by checking your e-mail first and I don't check my HCPL e-mail from home. Anyway, once I did that, I found an awesome word processing tool that I had no idea existed...actually an On-Line Word Processor!
This tool is great...you can access your documents from virtually any computer located anywhere at all. Other folks can also work on the same document at the same time. What a great idea this is. It has all the features I want/need from formatting to spell checker.
I really liked browsing through the Frequently Asked Questions part as I Frequently have Questions and this was very helpful/useful. The questions I had (and curiosities about the application) were answered in terms I could understand. I did a couple of quick test documents and found it to be very simple to use...and I probably will start using it right away. I will definitely set up an account with my HCPL e-mail Monday and let the processing from HCPL to anywhere at all begin.
I didn't feel that I was quite up to the challenge of posting this on my Blog through Zoho's "publishing" options...I'll wait a bit before I get that ambitious. In the meantime, thanks to iHCPL I have found something very useful that I will be using that will help me (and some family members) in many ways with the discovery of Zoho this week.
