I just bought a brand new laptop a couple of weeks ago. I was so excited to have a brand new computer because my old one was starting to become unreliable. Which worried me because I wanted a computer that I could trust that I would be able to complete all my class projects and assignments on. I started to explore all the programs on my computer. I asked my husband where is the Microsoft Office program and he informs me that I only have a trail version. I was shocked because I thought the program was on all new computers because you are spending a lot of money on a computer. Why should you have to spend even more money on additional programs? RIDICULOUS!!! Microsoft Office, I think you are in trouble because I am not spending more money on a program that I can get for free thanks to Zoho Writer. The setup is a little bit different than Word but when it comes to writing a paper they both can get the job done.
I also like the fact that my account is linked to my Google account. I feel Google just keeps me organized with all the things I use incorporated into my account. Now when I have to write a paper for group projects instead of just emailing my team members my parts I can just share it through Zoho writer. Options like this saves time and allows you to correct and add pieces to projects without having to arrange meeting times. I was also able to write this blog in Zoho and post it to my blog without any complications. Technology just makes our lives easier.

Isn't in ridiculous that you have to install Microsoft Office when you get a new computer?!? It isn't cheap either. I wish I knew about Zoho 2 months ago because we bought a new computer and spend almost $200 on Microsoft Office and it didn't even include a lot of the programs that I love to use. Zoho writer really does make it all easier!
