What a Cowinkidink...

Today around lunch time I posted a blog about Zohocreator and this afternoon I found a post on the Zoho blog that was somewhat related. No of course the fact that my blog has been hit about 20 times in 3 hours DOES not mean I had anything to do with the post, just a Cowinkidink ("Coincidence"), but it is cool to think I might have started a chain reaction - but highly doubtful. Anyway, I posted about:

the more advanced things I would like to try as in dynamically updating the value in a field based on a check box being selected when the user submits is one of those items they are working on. The other item, "accessing multiple form values" I've not heard anything yet, but I'm sure I'll get an answer pretty soon.


The blog I came across was written by Hyther in response to some comments made by DabbleDB’s founder Andrew in DabbleDB's forums.

Basically it's all about how Zoho is commited to Zohocreator and how they view each of their services as their own little startup,


We have extremely focused independant teams working on each zoho service - in Paul Graham words, each zoho service is a startup, and each product manager is the chief executive for the respective service.


So on one side I'm pretty happy to hear that they are focused on the whole project, but the other side I do have to wonder HOW many of them are focused and how quickly will I see some of those advanced features I am wanting?

I guess time will tell, for now I'm just generally impressed with what they have accomplished and I look forward to more from them in the near future!

Craig,
We appreciate your comments. We do have independent teams working on each Zoho service, and in general, if something is not coming fast, it is not due to lack of people, but more likely due to inherent complexity.

We will do our best to meet your expectation.
