Zoho Updates Show
Online application vendor Zoho has rolled out a batch of small but useful updates to their presentation package, Zoho Show. These aren’t earth-shattering, but they do continue its march to be one of the best alternatives for building a presentation in the traditional PowerPoint genre. I think the nicest of the new features is direct integration with Picasa and Flickr; as long as you’re logged in to the appropriate account, you can browse images and insert them without any cut and paste or looking up URLs.
Other improvements include support for additional languages, finer control over the appearance of presentations embedded in other web pages, copying and pasting slides between presentations, and the ability to export to PPT, PPS, ODP, and PDF.

We’re considering using Zoho for an academic online collaboration intiative. Any idea whether Zoho’s Terms of Service are as skewed as Google Docs (http://news.cnet.com/Google-denies-ownership-of-users-words/2100-1030_3-6207535.html)?
