Solo Technology

Box.net, the on-line storage folks, announced today that they now have Zoho integration. Apparently they didn’t want to be outdone by the Omnidrive folks!

As I understand it, at the moment this is strictly for documents with the .doc extension. I’ve exchanged some emails with Aaron (presumably one of the two Aaron’s here?) and he says they’re just testing/experimenting for now. I suspect they’re curious to guage interest.

I wouldn’t mind seeing .txt files get that Edit option though…

Not too long ago I posted that I thought it would be cool if there was an Omnidrive for Netvibes widget. And from the comment, there may be one coming. However, box.net already has a Netvibes widget. I just can’t get mine to show me anything… I have an email out on that one too.

[Update:  Got that issue fixed with help from Aaron.  I had an overly deep or complex folder structure in one of my box.net sub directories.  Now, hopefully the "edit" option will be added to that widget -- that'd be nifty.]

All in all, great stuff and so exciting to see these online players coordinating, cooperating and riffing off of each other’s APIs.
