      Google Apps? I'd be cautious about storing anything of importance or anything I wanted to be sure to keep private in any online storage system, whether it's Google Apps or some other kind of cloud computing.

      Sure, we all slip up in private messages. But, to store actual important files somewhere on the web? I think I'll pass, thanks.

      Dan's content is irregularly read by handfuls of people. Join the elite few by reading his blog: dcrBlogs.com, following him on Twitter: dcrTweets.com or reading his fiction: dcrWrites.com but NOT by Clicking Here!

      Dan also writes content for hire, but you can't afford him anyway.

    Emails as well. Sometimes we send user names and passwords and receive them over emails on free email providers like gmail and yahoo mail. Sometimes I shutter to think what will happen when these are compromised. I may be paranoid but it's a possibility.

    Well, I am not a millionaire and do not have a fat bank account. But to think that hackers will not target average folks like us is foolish because most of the time, we are the easy targets. Reminds me of the concept of keyword research, going for keywords with less search count but easy to rank.
