Hey, Ellen! I finally found something useful!

Youall can probably tell that I've not been very impressed with any of the "things" we've covered so far. That changed this afternoon.
I tried that Zoho word processor and finally--finally--found something worthwhile.
It has a number of good things going for it, not the least of which is that it's free (yay!) If you're familiar with MS Word, this'll be a snap to use. In fact, once my version of Office becomes obsolete I won't have to replace it, as Zoho seems to do everything I need.
Which is to say, not a lot. I never use any of the really exotic features of Word; for me it's basically a fancy typewriter. I'm sure Zoho lacks some of Word's features but since I probably wouldn't use 'em anyway, it doesn't matter to me.
Yep, Zoho is definitely a keeper.
Really, someone should create a blog about it...

Yeah! I knew you'd find something useful. Joyce and I were talking the other day about Zoho and Google docs and realized that it might be a good solution (once the bandwidth issues are resolved) for people using the public computers. No more worrying abut using floppy disks and accessible from anywhere!
