Matt CrosslinZoho’s Online vs. Offline Office Comparison

Posted by: Matt Crosslin In: Online Tools| Web 2.0

A few weeks ago I noticed a mistake I was constantly making: I would forget to follow what is going on with Zoho, and then they would release a whole slew of improvements and updates on me. Silly EduGeek. So, I added Zoho Blog to my RSS feeds and decided to keep in the know.

Katrina AdamsGoogle on the Brain

Posted by: Katrina Adams In: Current Events| Micro-Blogging| Online Tools

I was a bit surprised today when I saw Matt’s Jaiku post about Google buying Jaiku. (See Jaiku’s announcement and Google’s blog post.) Now, I know this is a conversation that’s been going on a long time now and has been a concern for many, but it still just really amazes me and kind of [...]

Matt CrosslinThe Buzz on Buzzword

Posted by: Matt Crosslin In: Online Tools| Web 2.0

Katrina AdamsPresentations come to Google Docs

Posted by: Katrina Adams In: Online Tools| Web 2.0

Google announced yesterday that they’ve added the ability to create/share/upload presentations using their Google Docs online application. While they’ll have to compete with established online presentation sites such as ZohoShow and Slideshare.net, Google is quickly becoming a viable alternative to Microsoft Office.

Matt CrosslinFirefox Campus Edition

Posted by: Matt Crosslin In: Current Events| Online Tools

The Internets seems to be a buzz today with the “new” Firefox Campus edition. It’s really just Firefox with FoxyTunes, Zotero, and StumbleUpon all pre-installed. But, it’s a great marketing idea. I know that there are people out there that haven’t installed any Firefox add-ons, because they are afraid to mess up something. This is [...]

Matt CrosslinBetter Web Browsing With OpenDNS?

Posted by: Matt Crosslin In: Online Tools

If you are like me, a good chunk of the Spam that goes through your Spam box says something about a faster Internet service. And the other half is a long lost relative from Kenya trying to get you to launder money into the United States for him. How many long lost relatives can I [...]
