Initially it seemed (to me) to be yet another way for certain companies and providers to lay their hands on more of our dollars, and I have not yet seen anything that changes that opinion - it is still just "the latest new thing". Additionally, Amazon's "cloud" service recently crashed - what if another crash like that was not recoverable - due to a dishonest or incompetent provider, perhaps - and there were billions of records lost? (Don't tell me about backups, either, there is no such thing as a 100% reliable backup.) Just suggesting a word of caution when using "the next best thing", sometimes they are just scams or the same method as we are using now but with a different name.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5415306683169000572.post-88481454683797523982012-10-26T16:11:05.120-07:002012-10-26T16:11:05.120-07:00I certainly will not get rid of anything I have.

I've had some negative experience with Wikipedia where I have submitted corrections with sources only to have my words changed back to the original but now with my sources left for the "bad" information.
