Even though I am familiar with blogging and my wife does so on a regular basis, it was not until I entered this class that I have started a blog of my own. During the last four weeks my eyes have been opened to a new way to spread the word, connect with people, and share knowledge I have have recently learned. This class being about Web2.0, I would like to reflect and highlight the tool I have found most useful thus far.
The Web2.0 service I am most impressed with most so far is zoho.com. I have always tried to get google docs to work for me, but have run into to many issues to invest any substantial amount of time to make it work. So far I have never had any trouble getting Zoho to work properly and other than the learning curve for the collaboration process the transition has been quick and hassle free.
In my classes I use zoho to share the class documents with all of my students, and I also use zoho sheet to include the class contact information. The opportunity to collaborate on specific documents and projects and create material directly from the site has given me and my classes more productivity and time to be more creative.
Zoho almost seems more like an operating system than is does a Web2.0 service, and my students appreciate being able to have access to the documents from anywhere to work on, and zoho.com will continue to be one of the main sites I use to share and collaborate on documents and projects with my classes.
