Let's recall the times when we learned 'WWW' stands for World Wide Web.
Whether you like to call it wuh-wuh-wuh or double-u double-u double-u, or World Wide Web, we all owe a lot to this groundbreaking invention that reshaped how we connect, communicate, and learn.
“The World Wide Web is the only thing I know of whose shortened form takes three times longer to say than what it’s short for.”
While we seldom type “www” into our browsers today, most domains now begin https:// or custom domains or subdomains, yet the spirit of the web remains the same: connecting people, ideas, and knowledge.
The web, work, and knowledge sharing
World Wide Web day, celebrated on August 1, reminds us of the importance of networking not just digitally, but socially and professionally. Long before the internet evolved into today’s immersive digital experience, knowledge was passed only through human connection: colleague to colleague, team to team, organization to organization.
In customer support, this knowledge exchange was more critical than ever.
How Zoho Desk embraces the spirit of the web
In Zoho Desk, we make efforts to do more than serve tickets. We use the 'spirit of web' to educate, assist, empower, and connect.
Every meaningful customer interaction begins with a clear understanding: the why, what, and how behind the product.
To support this, at Zoho Desk, we invest in myriad layers of knowledge delivery and engagement as below:
- An ever-growing Knowledge Base
- Community driven discussions
- Video tutorials
- Use cases and support articles
- Listening closely through feedback and support at various levels
- Meetings and remote sessions
- Webinars and virtual discussions with experts
- In person events : User meetups, zoholics, one-on-one sessions and workshops
These kinds of support keep customers informed, empowered, and help the organization too.
Evolving with the web
Here are a few more ways Zoho Desk aligns with the purpose and power of the World Wide Web:
Real-time collaboration: Agents can tag teammates, share private comments, and collaborate without switching tools, just as the web made global collaboration instant.
Contextual intelligence: Just like the web provides targeted search results, Zoho Desk provides data to agents from ticket properties, contact info, and customer insights, to make interactions faster and more relevant.
Global access, local relevance: Support teams across regions can operate seamlessly using custom SLAs, business hours, and multi-language knowledge bases to serve global customers with local sensitivity.
API-powered integrations: Zoho Desk connects with other apps and systems, extending support workflows much like the web connects data across platforms.
A Commitment, Not Just a Channel
On this World Wide Web Day, we reflect not just on the technology itself, but on why it matters:
- Create access to information
- Foster community growth
- Bridge knowledge gaps
- Ensure every customer values
At Zoho Desk, we see support as a shared journey between the customer and the organization. Like the web, we strive to make that journey inclusive, informed, and impactful.
Thank You for being part of this journey.
As we celebrate World Wide Web Day, let’s commit to building stronger, smarter, and more connected customer relationships.
Here’s to meaningful connections, one support conversation at a time.
Regards,
Lydia | Zoho Desk

Deleting unwanted ticket replies
Hello, In a Zoho Desk Ticket thread, sometimes one of the recipients has auto-reply activated. This creates a new message in the Ticket thread that not only pollutes the thread, but most importantly cannot be replied properly because usually auto-reply e-mails don't do "reply all", so the other recipients are not included. I want to delete such a message in the Ticket thread. I searched the help of Zoho Desk, but only found a way to mark as Spam (https://help.zoho.com/portal/kb/articles/marking-support-tickets-as-spam)

Zoho Calendar Integrated Into CRM?
I've searched around the forums but couldn't find anything addressing this . . . Is there a plan to integrate Zoho's stand alone calendar solution into Zoho CRM? The CRM calendar does an OK job but is very basic and the Zoho calendar is great, but I've only figured out to subscribe to my CRM calendar within ZCalendar - there is no 2-way sync. My preferred solution would be for ZCal to become the default calendar/event solution within Z CRM. Is this on the roadmap? Thanks
