To the Cloud!

29 Jan

Lately I’ve been getting questions about “The Cloud” from guests in the Digital Workshop…wondering what it is and how they use it.  To use Microsoft’s own words, “Windows Cloud connects and shares everything with your PC”, but you might still be wondering what it actually IS and how it will really benefit you.  Well, it’s Windows Live Essentials and all the fantastic free programs that includes!  A huge part of this is SkyDrive (www.skydrive.com), which will allow you to upload pictures, videos, Word documents and so much more (up to 25GB!) and access them from anywhere that has internet.  All of this is what’s being called “The Cloud”.  You can find out all about it and how to use it by going to http://www.microsoft.com/windows/cloud/.
