And one of these ways is what we called Cloud Computing. I know it sounds, itsounds a little big geeky, but it’s really not that complicated. Basically allof your files and all of your information, even all of those programs that youuse are all stored, you know, online or in the cloud as we call it. That meansyou’re not attached to any single computer or hard drive. All you have to do isbe connect to the Internet and you can access these programs and files from anywherein the world. 

 

 

Let’s use an example. So, I’m in New York and my coworker is in San Franciscoand we need to work on a presentation together. In the old way we would’vecreated a presentation, emailed as an attachment and sent it back and forth,back and forth until we were done. But with Google Docs for example, I cancreate a presentation online, share it with my colleague and we can actuallyboth edit it and make changes at the same time. And we’re working on the sameactual doc so there is no version control and there is no attachments. There isonly one copy of any file that you work on. That means you can be accessingyour information and working with other people from any computer.

 

 

In fact you can actually connect to it from any devices connected to theInternet. So smart phones, netbooks, laptops you name it, and there is nothingto download or install. You just get online and off you go.
