Thing #13

Lucky 13! First of all,  ZOHO's documents are a lot like Microsoft Word, but with a slight delay. Maybe it's because every time you type something, this programs saves it. No joke... every single letter. I was wondering what the delay was because I can type pretty fast and the app was barely lagging. I looked up at the top and noticed that every time I would type, it would read, "saving". However, Google docs did the same thing, but it took quite a bit more time for Google to save than it did ZOHO. The two word documents looked similar enough to easily work with interchangeably. I would go for Google docs simply because they offer more apps for more uses. A simple email address and from then on out, it's a one stop shop.

I could see how my students could use this. Microsoft Office is down right expensive and their parents might not want to buy such an expensive program for their high school students to use every once in a while. I would suggest for them to use Google docs because it's free and using a Gmail account opens up a bunch of apps for them to use automatically. My students could work on a presentation and link it/email it back and forth from anywhere and get many things done from the convenience of their own homes.
