THING 9

I was unable to edit Google Docs because Find on This Page kept popping up. Editing the document in ZoHo was easy. Many more people edited the Google Doc. I am curious to read their comparisons between the two. The applications could be useful for any joint composing or editing task if available to people who took the task seriously. Clearly here, people are trying to inject humor into what could be one more burdensome Thing. If one were trying to accomplish a group assignment, it might help speed the process along and facilitate creating a better end product.

Judy,
If you are signed up as an editor of a Google Document, you should be able to just start typing, editing. Sounds like you were hitting "Control-F".

I have used Google Documents to edit a spreadsheet for a TIES Strategic planning initiative, and we also used Google Docs to create this document for our Community of Practice this year.

It sounds like I was hitting Control-F, but I wasn't.
