Zoho, the free online office suite, just added the ability to login with your Google or Yahoo ID. Eliminating the need to sign up or create a new account will hopefully encourage more users to try Zoho. When asked why they didn't just add in support for OpenID and receive even more users and traffic, Zoho evangelist Raju Vagesna said that they plan to do that soon, but wanted to address users' immediate needs.

Hot on the heels of Google Sky comes Microsoft's World Wide Telescope.

And finally, for you Javascript programmers out there, we've got a cool little library from John Resig, called Processing.js. It's John's birthday and he's giving you a "reverse birthday gift" -- it's a Javascript port of the API for the programming language Processing, complete with its powerful graphical drawing tools. If you have no idea what any of that means, don't worry, just be thankful there are guys like John Resig out there making the web a better place and pushing the free line for all us non - programmers
