I checked out dropbox but am not using it just yet…

“The desktop metaphor was invented because one, you were a stand-alone device, and two, you had to manage your own storage. That’s a very big thing in a desktop world. And that may go away. You may not have to manage your own storage. You may not store much before too long.” – Steve Jobs.

I use some features that are cloud based, like Evernote. Yet I’m not fully sold on the whole idea of the cloud. Security is a major concern. Who’s to say they won’t sell your information or close down and take everything with them?

I know it sounds paranoid but after seeing many tech companies fold, it’s a valid concern for me.

You had me laughing out loud! I love the idea of storing up my writing treasures in the heavenly cloud!

Hubby and I EACH signed up for our free dropbox(es) but then when we went to our joint computer we found we had to share. And quickly ran out of room. So I still back up onto USB drives and email things to myself.

Every time I use my dropbox I’ll be thinking of your post, Chris! Thank you.

I don’t use Evernote, but I’ve heard many great things about it.

God has been showing me a great deal in the past few years about storing up treasures in heaven. I endeavor to invest in my cloud and I trust God to guard and bless it.
