#32 Omnidrive and shipshot

Well, I am not sure how, but I did manage to download a document to Zoho writer and then download it to omnidrive. I am not sure I can repeat it quickly. Accidently stumbled on the right combination of steps. Will try again later.

I can open my document in omnidrive, but it is a multistep process. Interesting.
I don't see where I will need to use it again at this point. BUT I have proven myself wrong on that a couple of times during this 2.0 process, so you never know!

The recipe I used for this experiment is on my blog.

SNIPSHOT was fun. It is easy to download a picture from your computer and then crop, resize it etc. You can also use an html code to put a picture in this program. FUN!

#18 zoho revisited

I went back into zoho writer while trying to do #32 Omnidrive. When in zoho before, I couldn't get it to post to my blog. TODAY it worked. This is the same thing I wrote before, but this time I posted it directly from zoho to my blog!!!!

I can understand where using online office programs could come in handy.

If you use one version of a program at home, and then go somewhere else and try to

work on your project on a different version of the same program it just doesn't work.

BUT if you use the online version and save your document, you can go anywhere else that has internet and open up your document and continue working on it.  No problem!

 

So, online word and the spreadsheet programs would come in handy for this reason.

We have had patrons many times that couldn't use or computers to work on their document for this very reason.  They leave frustrated and sometimes angry.

 

The tool bars look like they have the same things on them.  Even some new ones that I don't recognize. 

 

 

#31 Plaxo

Well, I went into Plaxo and created a calendar. Not much too put on it though.
Added a couple tv shows, bd's, anniv. Added a link to my calendar on my blog. When I clicked on it however, it only took me to Plaxo where I have to sign in to retrieve my calender. SO I deleted the link.

I can see where this might be a good thing if you have lots of appointments or dates to remember in your daily life. However for me, I don't think I will find a need for it.

Tried the icalshare.com site and found that I couldn't subscribe to anything. Firefox said not linked to any program, and windows said "page can't be found".
