Dear Hot Scripts Members

My wife and I have just returned from holidays in London. Prior to leaving for our holidays, we had different priorities -- while she was taking the headache out of holiday packing, I had to back up and synchronize all my files with my laptop. For some people, including myself, this backup and sync mantra brings on feelings of optimism mixed with fear. What if something happens to your laptop during your travels? So instead of relying on just the laptop, I decided to move all my data online.

I migrated my emails from MS Outlook to Gmail, consolidated my POP3 accounts, and set up IMAP access for my email clients. Then I uploaded my documents and other files to Box.net, which provides support for online document creating and editing. Instead of using desktop software, I went for the increasingly groovy trend on the Web -- Software as a Service, or SaaS. I can now IM from any computer using Meebo services, manage my to-do list with Remember the Milk, and even do basic image manipulation using the online version of Photoshop Express. SaaS offers flexibility and integration possibilities while being cheaper than desktop software. As the SaaS industry continues to mature, we will see an expanding range of SaaS solutions that are more secure and scalable.

Anyway, I am now a happy man! Enjoy this month's issue, and don't forget to pay a visit to the Hot Scripts Forums.
 


Sincerely,

Ahmad Permessur
