[real-eyes] Re: Google Docs

I was thinking more along the lines of the security of the data once it is
in the cloud. The only thing I found (admittedly in only a cursory search)
is that Google takes your privacy and security of data seriously and have a
team of folks watching out for you. That wasn't very reassuring for me. But
I didn't find a spate of warning of security flaws and breeches either.

       well if our whole  ofice state wide  is sharing the docs  with each 
other then i am sure  it is all public. That is why the company   set it up 
like that.
