Thing 45 - Cloud Computing

I like the concept of cloud computing. I have a lot of accounts that can be considered "in the cloud" Gmail, facebook, my bank account, twitter, photobucket, delicious can pull all of my bookmarks up on any computer, I have google docs and google calendar accounts set up. I like the idea that no matter where I am, home, work, traveling, on vacation or whatever, I am able to access these easily as long as I can hook into the Internet. None of it is stored directly on the hard drive of my computer. The cool thing about it is that then if my computer died or something, I would not lose any of the info since it is out there in cloud-land! I wish I could back up my entire itunes library of 80,000 plus songs this way and I would have no worries about that! I do have these backed up on a separate had drive though so I think I'm OK!
