egarding Zoho… ALL of their apps have an embed feature. every darn one of them! Anything that you can create in Zoho Writer, Sheet, Show, Creator, Projects, DB, Notebook, Planner, and Chat can be shared, collaborated upon, and embedded into other resources … That is an amazing set of interoperable tools that are all "in the cloud." Additionally, last December (2007) Zoho leveraged Google Gears giving Writer the ability to edit offline as well as online. This allows you to take 15 documents offline, edit them, and when you are back online, they will sync back to Zoho’s servers.

MyStudiyo.com - Create a quiz, embed it on your site or blog, all in just 5 minutes!
What an amazing tool! Currently there are two flavors of quizzed "promotional" and " "add on" promotional allows you to create a standard online "quiz" well if you call standard being able to embed audio, video, pictures, and text! The "Addon" quiz lets participants take the quiz and then add more questions if they want? Classroom thoughts abound in my head!
