Task #7 - Cloud Computing

Everything is "in the cloud" these days. It does indeed seem like the future, and of course, it's pretty handy, too. Dropbox seems very useful, though I am not a current user. I have used Google docs/spreadsheets for all types of things. It came most in handy in library school when collaborating with folks from across the nation on group projects. I'm not really a multiple-device-carrying kind of person, but if I WAS...I would probably make more use of this. I would suggest these to patrons, sure. It would be much easier for them to access their things on our computers and their home computers...they could work on a Google doc from either place and keep it saved in the same spot. I'm sure I use the cloud more often than I realize.
