Cloud Crashing

In the article from npr.org, there is a discussion about Steve Jobs's iCloud technology allowing all devices to gain access to a common juncture.

The article says however that experts have concerns for businesses moving to place their sensitive data in the cloud. It is still vulnerable to crashes and attacks and is likely to open up legal problems.

Personally I am not a fan of storing all of my information in just one area. There is that old saying to "Never keep your eggs in 1 basket" iCloud Technology sounds like it would make life very convenient for organizing information and gaining easy access to the content when needed.

Although the advantages of retrieving information remotely through a network server is very appealing, I think that one should consider the high security risks involved before investing all time and money into this iCloud.
