Tech Torture with Topher, Day 2 : Part 2

I think you do tend to Ramble but not bad.

I really like this experiment. But my question is do you consider finder utilities like spotlight, and dictionary as off limit desktop apps?

For online storage you might try (I've never used but looks decent) : http://www.zshare.net/ or http://www.livedrive.com

Mita: I do find things like Dictionary and Spotlight off limits for this test.

There is a new product called Engage coming from Glide OS in a couple of weeks that sounds like it will really improve on Twitter. Here is an article at InformationWeek about Engage.

Liked your blog. Check you out on twitter if I can download DropBox. Looking good on the camera, wish I could look so good on mine.

Good Day, Luka, skywalker, Ha. Alexis.

Just caught your experiment and it looks interesting. There is one cautionary note I would make to those considering this type of jump. Free services are great as long as you have no particular issues or problems. However speaking from experience if you lose access to say a free email account or use document storage that gets phased out, like Yahoo's Briefcase, it can be very difficult if not impossible to recover files or mail from these free systems. Customer service response can be very long or non-existant. So just like all things dealing with computers you may want to discuss what disaster recovery / fault tolerance services are available for people living in the cloud.

Topher – Just put up a blog post about your project at http://www.breakingpointsystems.com/community/blog/test-the-cloud-before-you-live-in-it . Your cloud journey inspired me to think about they types of tech torture you might experience in the cloud. Would love to get your thoughts.

Your experiment is interesting, and I'll be curious to see what kind of conclusions you draw from it.

For storage, you mentioned DropBox –there's a service called Box.net that might also be helpful.

Are you doing much Web conferencing? There's a Web conferening tool called Netspoke, based in Atlanta; of course Web-based, and could be helpful as another way to communicate, share documents, work, etc. http://www.premiereglobal.com/conferencing/web-conferencing/netspoke/how-it-works.asp. We could set you up with a free version.

The only place you’ll find success before work is in the dictionary

Great – I should definitely pronounce, impressed with your website. I had no trouble navigating through all the tabs and related information ended up being truly simple to do to access. I recently found what I hoped for before you know it in the least. Quite unusual. Is likely to appreciate it for those who add forums or anything, site theme . a tones way for your customer to communicate. Nice task.
