I think the Zoho writer tool is amazing! It is almost an exact replica of Microsoft Office word. People pay tons of money every year on new Microsoft Software for the up and coming desktop, laptop, ipad, and tablets. Yet, here is this online (accessible from anywhere with internet), FREE, tool! I am amazed that something like this exists.

I like the google documents drawing app. Students could use the scribble tool to draw out math problems for each other. Tutoring sessions could be online rather than in home. Also, the documents, presentations, etc could be used for group projects. The inconvience of staying after school or making another trip to school would no longer exist. Google Docs makes it easy to share and collaborate! I personally liked Google Docs better. This had more apps then the Zoho. Zoho did not have presentations, forms, or spreadsheets. They did have the writer though. The calendar and lists are not all that helpful for me because I carry a planner for myself. But, if I was already teaching in a school I guess it would be helpful to post meetings and share materials etc. Altogether, I love these online, free applications, and I am STILL amazed that they exist... being free!
