Thing 13

It was so easy to sign up for the free Zoho account. I really enjoyed exploring the whole website. One of my favorite things about the website was the Collaboration apps under the Productivity Apps tab. I feel that this will be something that I come back to in the future as a teacher or student. 
I spent a while exploring Google Docs. It has a lot in common with Zoho but is also very different. Both require the user's own creativity to really work it. I created a poster with Google Docs. Both of these resources would be great to use in a classroom. Students could work collaboratively using Google Docs to make presentations, projects, and visual aids. Both resources make it easy to not have to worry about copyright because it promotes creating your own document. I really find both productivity sites very helpful. However, I do prefer Google Docs over Zoho. Google Docs feels more familiar to me. It seems a little bit easier to use, and I feel would be easier for students to use as well.
