Oh of course.* I'm very grateful for the cloud.* And of course,
a drastic EITHER/OR scenario.* [either the cloud or nothing],
I'd pick the cloud :) I utilize the cloud at every opportunity,
making backups of backups and such.* Really important stuff I
put up on the Internet Archive; that's why they have it.* I have
a long way to go with that though. Yeah, granite is about the
only way to be permanent.* I don't think paper is superior; I
would HATE to have to go back to paper-only.* Cloud is much
better. My criticism is only with the nature of business.*
They're short-sighted, so it's up to us to make sure we backup
somewhere - even if it's in another part of the internet or
whatever. Think about Facebook or Google+.* When they go under
and/or wipe their servers... which they will... it always
happens...* (hostile takeover, change of business model,
whatever) - what happens to everything within it? Gone.* So, I
save my own stuff in a few places.* It's the best I can do.
