WordPress

I’ve committed to use wordpress.com so I’m offloading responsibilities to the cloud (at the risk say, of Microsoft buying out WordPress) and don’t have to concern myself with hosting issues (like, security upgrades). Less work, more time to write.

It’s been a bad few weeks for the Cloud though, mostly at Googlus Cumulus:

Gmail
Google Docs

Cloud Computing has it’s place and you get what you pay for. I use Google Docs for convenience and to keep my toes wet with Web2.0 experiences but I’m mindful of what I put there. It’s convenient because I regularly hop from one device to another across locations and platforms.

I think subscription-based, managed applications is a better way for those that have the $5 or $50 per month, per user. Buy yourself some assurance.

I’m very interested in Zoho per the above model and would be interested to host a resell solution if I can back it up with appropriate support.
