Its a good idea to get the word out and keep it in front of the general audience at hand. I for many reasons dislike the cloud one of the largest being priacy and the next one being freedom and liberty related. I allows to much power for to few people. The best thing about the net was that information was is largely decentralized. It should remian so. The move to the cloud is a attempt to bring the information into one central source, great for a capitolistic corporation but bad for individual freedoms and a free market. Seam
