Zoho Writer goes offline (in a good way)


Back in August Zoho added offline reading to Zoho Writer. While it's pretty cool that you can save online documents for reading when you're away from an internet connection, there was no way to edit those documents at the time.

Now Zoho is filling in the blanks by launching a full read/write capable version of Zoho Writer. That means when you mark a document for download you'll be able to read it, edit it, and synchronize it with your online documents when you go back online.

Of course, you could also just use a free word processor like OpenOffice Writer or AbiWord if you really just wanted to be able to edit documents offline. What makes online office suites cool is the ability to collaborate with other users. And Zoho Writer has that covered. Several different people can download the same document for editing and then synchronize their changes with the online version. Because Zoho lets you see the editing history of a document, it should be easy to see who made which changes.
