Jeremy joins the cloud
I love technology. For all of this love, I rarely embrace nerdtastic things that cross my blog reader. Most of the amazing, technological breakthroughs happened long before my trip down the birth canal.
And, I’m usually the last to jump on any band wagon. When I hear the term Matrix Cloud I chuckle to myself and think of Larry Ellison’s most wonderful rant.
But today I join the cloud in what I consider the first real way. The coolness of this cloud is both conceptual and kinetically different than just client-server technology. The secret sauce of the cloud is accessibility, in a way that occurs as extremely low pain to the senses of those doing the accessing.
Today I joined delicious.com, and you can find me at http://delicious.com/jeremyosborne. All my bookmarks are private, but I’ll make them public soon once I get used to managing things.

IMHO clouds do have a purpose and I am glad that clouds are “back” with a spin.
I personally use clouds for emails and todo’s.
No longer do I have to save a ton of personal emails to my local drive, back them up on a regular basis, etc etc.
I use appigo.com apps of Todo and Notebook on my iPhone and desktop to sync, store and backup all my notes and todo’s through toodledo.com. Appigo apps are a small fee but worth their weight when using toodledo which is free!
Welcome to the clouds Jeremy ;)

I’m digging the delicious bookmarking, and am looking for more places to push out my public data that are manageable and make sense. Todo notes and calendars would logically be next, but I don’t have (nor really want) an iPhone or Smart phone… okay, maybe a G1 or a phone like it someday. For now, I love having a paper pocket calendar and a moleskin todo list. It will take a lot of UI improvements that not even Apple has mastered to get me to finally switch over to a mobile device.
