Collaboratively Cooking and Dishing Up Documents

This week's social networking tools class calls for experimenting with various online office tools to create and share documents collaboratively. I didn't realize there were so many choices of ingredients, cookware and serving dishes available. I personally liked the Zoho presentation. It was colorful and satisfying. http://zoho.com/ It's a complete meal, prix fixe (it's free.) No ordering a la carte.

Google Docs was also tasty, http://docs.google.com/ I created a blueberry-colored folder and put some documents in it. Yum. But for some reason I found it less satisfying than Zoho. Microsoft Office Live http://home.live.com/?mkt=en-us flavor didn't appeal to me at all. But maybe it was because by that time, I'd had a bellyful of online office tools. All this is purely a matter of taste, of course, and we know that there is no accounting for some people's taste.
