That seemed like a great idea but I was worried about complicating the novice user. If they go to the blog and hit a link that now brings them to the zoho interface (which is not bad, but it is different) they may not have a clue where they can leave feedback. See, zoho offers a place to leave feedback for each post as well. Effectively, my parents would have to look both on the blog and at zoho to see responses others may leave at either site and, at this point, that is too complicated for my parents comfort level. <BR/><BR/>Sridhar Vembu, I thank you for following your product so closely and the attention you pay to feedback! I have been a strong supporter of your product and look forward to any improvements you may have in the works for using your tool this way. It allows me to work with family to create a family work. Collaboration tools like this can really offer some positive side effects when you are working with loved ones you can not be near!<BR/><BR/>Kern, I have played with the Google product and right now I have been running some work projects in parallel with Zoho to compare both products. So far I can see benefits for both products. Since I work with so many teachers that all have different needs it is great to have options. Thanks for brining that option up as other may not have heard of the tool or using it this way yet. If I get time I will have to take one of the installments and do it up in both applications to look at the size and load time of each : )<BR/><BR/>I will continue to play with options, and look forward to any other input people may have for me. Thanks!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11482032264588386814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3997838873455865285.post-63954821306136914212008-01-21T19:57:00.000-05:002008-01-21T19:57:00.000-05:00Ed,Instead of embedding the videos or slideshows j...Ed,<BR/><BR/>Instead of embedding the videos or slideshows just make a url link to their source (Zoho, YouTube, BubbleShare, etc). You can always take a screenshot of the video or a still to use as a preview if you desire.<BR/><BR/>Looks like a great blog concept.mrichmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04989229412794763074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3997838873455865285.post-38148175891876480742008-01-21T17:17:00.000-05:002008-01-21T17:17:00.000-05:00We will speed this up - we didn't realize people w...We will speed this up - we didn't realize people were using it for t his purpose, but in hindsight that is a great way to use Zoho Show. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for blogging about the loading issue.<BR/><BR/>Sridhar Vembu<BR/>ZohoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3997838873455865285.post-15563811508785124182008-01-21T15:54:00.000-05:002008-01-21T15:54:00.000-05:00One option might be to only show posts for 1 day r...One option might be to only show posts for 1 day rather than the default 7. (Unless they are doing more than one post a day.) Another option, like you said is to link to the slide show rather than embed it. Have you tried Google Presently? It's not as robust as Zoho, but might be quicker.Kern Kelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16918073875608014468noreply@blogger.com
