A version of the igoogle gadgets that uses https for the  frame would be nice.

I have NoScript automatic secure cookie management turned on to prevent over-the-air disclosure of session credentials on public wifi, so the igoogle gadget never sees the login cookie.  (This feature auto-appends ;secure to cookies transmitted over https, including the Zoho auth cookie, so the browser won't present them on a non-encrypted connection.)

[..] To that end, Zoho Gadgets support the OpenSocial standard, meaning you can embed them just about anywhere: sites, blogs, etc.  And I’ll letZoho’s own blogexplain another techie detail: [..]

[..] You can now access  Zoho Docs (which includes Writer, Sheet & Show), Mail, Calendar, Tasks, Contacts and Planner on Facebook, Orkut or any OpenSocial compatible Social Network, and perhaps more importantly on iGoogle and even within Gmail. (details and how-to’s here) [..]

[..] To show gadget on Gmail sidebar, login into Gmail, goto settings > Gadgets and then paste Open Social XML URL as displayed on Zoho Gadgets webpage. This new feature will make Zoho more accessible and attractive while we use our other favorite web services like Gmail, Orkut, Facebook etc. Embed Zoho Gadget and stay updated with content of your Zoho account.

[..] Zoho launches Zoho Gadgets an iGoogle like environment, based on OpenSocial [..]

[..] The six Zoho Gadgets — Docs, Mail, Calendar, Tasks, Contacts, and Planner — are available for Facebook, iGoogle, and Orkut, as well as sites cognizant of OpenSocial XML (e.g., MySpace, Blogspot, Zoho or other wikis), and there’s a generic embeddable version as well. The companysays on its blogthat more will come. [..]

[..] Gadgets de Zoho para tu cuenta igoogle, facebooketc.-  Una forma cómoda y útil de acceder a tus aplicaciones de Zoho desde cualquier de los escritorios e incluso para tu página web. [..]

This is great.
You're a wonderful company, nothing less!

I like it! Now this is probably an issue with Open Social, but I would really like the ability to host documents in a group instead of them being something that I personally have to "share" with my "friends", but let them instead be placed in a central container (folder or group or whatever you want to call it). It should be possible to allow anyone with access to that container to edit the document.

An example being:
I have a ning network that I want to be able to share and collaborate on files. I don't want them to have to sign up for zoho, but I do want to use zoho docs, etc. So there should be some folders that can be shared by all in the network, with the possibility of editing via zoho docs.

I have different groups in ning and each of these groups should have their own folders, possibly with separate rights.


Make sense? Keep up the good work!

Wow I really like these services! I am a gr8 fan of Zoho and Zoho creator :)

What exactly is the difference between 'task' and 'planner'?  I assume the planner gadget integrates with planner, but how does task fit in?  If I add something to tasks, does it go to my planner site also?

An iGoogle widget for tasks Zoho Projects would be EXTREMELY helpful for quick adds/edits...

Any plans to implement this...???

This is a good application for orkut

Thanks for asking @Mads

We'll soon release a gadgety interface for Zoho Projects that can be accessed in iGoogle/Orkut or other OpenSocial apps. Please check our blogs space after a week to know the details. However I'll keep you updated if you can send your emailId to support(at)zohogadgets(dot)com.
