Zoho is going mobile. The free online office suite, which competes with Google Docs, is introducing a version of its software for mobile phones and other devices. Documents that are altered online via PCs can now be accessed via Zoho's mobile site for on-the-go spreadsheet action.

The mobile platform supports Internet Explorer, Opera, Safari, and other WAP browsers, and has also been optimized for the iPhone, according to Zoho.

"Mobile devices are constant personal companions, far more ubiquitous than laptops with Wi-Fi or cellular network connections," Zoho's Raju Vegesna, said in a statement.

For an unintentionally hilarious, Muzak-filled video demonstration of the service, click on the video above. Help me out on this, though. Around minute 1:05, does the guy in the video stop to buy t-shirts at a store called Sperm?!

It's a little Web site that keeps getting bigger: meebo which started life as an interface for multiple instant-messaging apps, is adding games to its offerings. Using the meebo Platform APIs (which became publicly available October 30), a number of third-party developers (including AddictingGames, Come2Play, and Mochi Media) have created more than 20 games for meebo users--and they became available this morning.

Games include titles such as Animal Jigsaw 100, Kongregate Racing, checkers and chess, Sudoku Wars, and of course--what would a game site be without it?--Texas Hold 'em Poker. Personally, though, I can't wait to try Fratboy Unicycle Relay.

According to meebo, we can look for shopping, productivity, and work applications, as well as music and video, to come in the near future.

Google's mapping programs are a procrastinator's dream. I have definitely wasted a good amount of time whizzing around Google Earth and trying to spot strange occurrences via Street View. It appears that my proud history is destined to continue with the Tuesday introduction of a Google Maps editing function.

Starting today, users signed into their Google accounts can move the green arrows that point to a specific address so that they more accurately reflect where that home or business is actually located. Eventually users will also be able to edit business information and add points of interest, according to Google.

For those who get the bright idea to move undesirable building locators to the middle of the Hudson River, changes will be reviewed by moderators and edited entries will have the option to "show original" link.

"If it's in the wrong place, just move it to the right one," Seth LaForge, a software engineer with Google Maps, wrote in a blog post.

I've already busied myself moving the green arrows for my apartment building and the PC Mag offices. More fun with mapping to come, I'm sure.

OK, so it's not much compared with the 88 million or so copies of Vista that Microsoft has moved since January. But selling 2 million copies of Leopard in three days is still a pretty impressive indicator of Apple's ever-increasing market share, "far outpacing" the sales of its predecessor and current best-selling Apple OS, Tiger.

"Leopard's innovative features are getting great reviews and making more people than ever think about switching to the Mac," said Steve Jobs. Apparently, the guy's a fan.
