Interesting idea. I've started using a few more cloud apps lately, and the thought of losing everything certainly crossed my mind again. The problem thought is often the data is tied to some sort of object structure, which may be hard to r

I agree that it is not the most scientific, in-depth article, but I've seen these themes echoed elsewhere by those who have studied innovators. At any rate, I find for myself that it is good to review the basics from time to time. When I
