Story: Microsoft announces browser-based Office apps
What a load of menudo!
I could see a "Cloud"-based office suite sitting on a server inside a business' intranet, behind its own firewall. But trusting my business documents or contracts, mortgages, etc etc to a service run by a company that changes product names faster than banks change their names!
No way. Most stupid idea yet.
I can see doing software delivery, entertainment content, news, text messaging via Internet connections but allowing the PRIMARY storage media to be out of physical reach is ridiculous.
Off-site storage of ENCRYPTED backups is as far as it goes.
