Week 8: #19 Web-based Apps: They're not just for desktops


WOW, I love Zoho! I can see that software will eventually disappear and everything will become web based. And what a great collaborative environment that will enable us to be.

I created a powerpoint slide show with Zoho Show, called "Simple Document" about Green Building, such as the photo at left. I didn't have any luck exporting the html, but I will keep trying.

Here's the url for Shade House Development, green builders in Houston: http://www.shadehousedev.com/photo_gallery.html.

Elise : Thanks for using Zoho Show and glad that you like it!

Export to HTML and embedding a slide show in your blog are two different things in Zoho Show. When you click on 'Actions' -> 'Export to HTML', you are creating a set of HTML files which you can save to your desktop and play it when you are offline.

When you choose Actions -> Embed Slideshow, you are given a HTML code snippet (an iframe) which you can copy-paste to your blog.

An example slideshow embedded in a blog here.

Hope that clarifies. Do mail me at aravind(at)zoho(dot)com if you need further assistance in using Zoho Show.
