Influency: When You Can’t Find Yourself, Who Can Find You?

All the tools in the world don’t matter, if you use them like toys.Having 50 GB OF FREE CLOUD STORAGE!!! isn’t meaningful unless you use it, any more than having more pixels on a screen than you can see.

I’ve just come across Otixo. It’s a great solution to a growing problem; we have “stuff” scattered all across the Internet in various “cloud” locations, but as soon as you use more than one you create questions about what got stored where. And good luck moving things from one place to another.

Otixo Cloud Computing and Easier Storage Management

Apple iCloud Equals Continued Upsell. This is Easy Computing?

Apple iCloud is a Data Hog

Once upon a time, computer users were either Mac People or PC People. You might think that’s still true, but “back in the day” the debate was contentious and continuous. PC users didn’t so much love Windows as they were used to it, and Mac users were firmly and staunchly pro-Apple for reasons that didn’t hold water, but before we had high-speed Internet differences in things like floppy drive capacity rendered the two platforms all but incompatible. You had to pick a side.

Google’s Latest Play for Monopolistic Business: File Formats

Google and World Domination via File Formats

Quite a few years ago, I ran into Deb Triant, who at the time was President of Adobe. We spoke for about thirty minutes, and embarrassing as this is, I didn’t know how highly placed a person I was speaking with when I shared—emphatically—my opinion that Adobe needed to make the .PDF file format an open standard, else see it become unimportant. Ms. Triant laughed at that suggestion; in the early days of PDF Adobe charged not just for the tools to create the files but also for the software people needed to read them.

The Storage Wars and Google Drive

Yesterday I promised to tell you everything you need to know about Google Drive. GDrive is a subject that been tossed around literally for years; we all knew Google Drive would show up eventually, and if “storing your stuff on line” was the only thing that interested you, it’s possible that you figured out how to create a virtual “Google Drive” years ago by putting your files into GMail.

The Storage Isn’t Google; on Amazon Cloud Music Gets Free-er

A while back I told you about the best-yet-chance-of-outdoing-iTunes approach Google Music is taking to the music business. It’s almost becoming a theme; Google+ is better than Facebook, and although Google+ isn’t mature yet, it’s a great example of Google making better stuff than their competitors in key markets.

Amazon is doing their best to get into new businesses, too. The Amazon Cloud puts the retail giant into cloud storage in a way that has to impress any student of business change, and although Amazon Cloud Music felt a bit under-cooked when Amazon got together with Lady Gaga, Amazon’s cloud plans are starting to look smarter.
