In the Clouds

For a couple of years now, I'd clung to my Hotmail addresses, even though I'd been using my domain name as my primary e-mail address. Part of it was pride in being an early adopter. I'm not a Super Badass Ninja Hacker, but I never had to use an underscore, number, or a middle initial with my primary Hotmail address.

Today I finally made the switch to a g-mail address. And this time around, it's painfully obvious that I'm getting on the bandwagon a little late, although I haven't had to stick an underscore or number next to or in my user name, thank Xenu. It does feels good, but in a weird way, I think it has finally killed any plans to replace my iBook.

One look at the applications available to me on gmail, and I knew that if I ever need a laptop, a netbook will suffice. The cloud rules.
