Zoho Gadgets give you quick access to Zoho from Gmail, Facebook, etc
Zoho has launched a new feature that lets you access Zoho's suite of web office documents from Faceboo, iGoogle., Orkut, or any web page that either supports OpenSocial XML or lets you embed an iframe. Zoho Gadgets are little widgets that provide you with an overview of the following Zoho services:- Zoho Docs
- Zoho Mail
- Zoho Calendar
- Zoho Tasks
- Zoho Contacts
- Zoho Planner

And when I tried adding events to the Zoho Calendar gadget they didn't show up, unlike the Google Calendar gadget that's available from Gmail Labs. But the Zoho Docs gadget worked just as you'd expect.

That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
