I've only been doing this "computer stuff" for 53 years, and I've NEVER let some other party be responsible for my document storage. It's just insane!

So, Google Docs is not for me, nor for any of our clients, because the Internet is still in its early days of evolution. Eventually, we may get to reliable connections, trustworthy providers, solid security and (relatively) bug-free software. But, 2010 isn't yet that year.

I'll stick to M$ Office, or Open Office, and share my documents through "the cloud," but storing everything in "the cloud" and trusting others' behavior is for boobs and idiots.

"Cloud computing" is just old wine (now vinegar) in new bottles; SaaS has never gained a significant foothold, and Outsourcing enthusiasm waxes (with new deals) and wanes (when we find the crap buried beneath the pretty GUI).
