Why so many cloud nowadays on top of the sky? The storage is limited and some need pay. How good is it?

Agree! I personally believe that web storage is a new way of interactive between users. For example, Google Chrome OS.

With the limited storage, cost and slow broken Network, how practical to use? It is frustrated when you can't get your file when need it. It very well much depend on the network which are still unreliable now. At least for our country.

but cloud storage is disaster proof. Actually my plan is to backup only long-term data on the cloud.. not the type of data that you would need everyday

on a consumer level, yeah it's pretty limited right now... but on the flip side, u dun ve to worry abt things like maintaining ur data, back ups etc...

cloud has been around us for a long time... web mail is the simplest form... smartphone is combining all the cloud services into 1 place... things like Google Music, Google Maps, Evernote, Google Cloud Printing, all these make full use of cloud computing... and iCloud pushed it to another level...

as broadband gets cheaper u will get to benefit from it...

user posted image

the Xoom Folio case, it's a leather case with (most probably) a bluetooth keyboard on it, meaning no charging capability, no USB port, no full SD reader, juz keyboard...

this case will set u back for US$85...

When kena hack, that is disaster. When you get a lot of spam mail, you know your data in the cloud get compromise.

Actually I m using and experience similiar cloud thing for few yrs already. I would said it is good and sometime frustrate too when you can't access and time consume for upload/dowmload.

For few yrs using, my experience, I still keep my data to pendrive and treat cloud as backup only. I can't rely on it specially when away working. The good is I can share my video, picture etc with my friend and family. They can write comment, leave message and blog on my storage. Another good about my own cloud is I have 6tb storage free. smile.gif
