Thing #13

I created a simple document using Zoho.com and I personally was less than impressed with it.  The cursor hung about two lines below where I was typing and it made it hard to correct typing errors because I really didn't know where it was supposed to be.  Thanks but no thanks, I'll stick with good old MS Word.

Google Docs I am already using and here is one document that I had stored there already.

My students could use google docs to share research information because they could be added as a group and all contribute their information to the same place for all to view.

I much prefer Google docs over what I saw on Zoho and will continue to use Google docs in the future.
