Um, another net app?!?

So, Google now has an online spreadsheet. To go along with its online word processor and its online mapping software.

Meanwhile, you can go to your online feed management system to post to your online blog.

Anyone who knows me knows that I am well connected. I have net coming out of my ears. We’re talking Cell phone, WiFi, Gigabit endowed laptop. Ooh, baby.

But guess what. Every now and then, there isn’t a signal. The mountain is too high, the farm to wide, the airport too expensive, or worse… the plane. And then what?

All my files are inaccessible or worse… The application itself is web based.

Until we can assure 24/7 access to the internet (planes, trains and automobiles)… Web based apps are still a nifty curiosity… and little else.

Just my $0.02

I’m making this post with Semagic. That would be the LJ client for XP.

I’m actually stuck in XP on my home computer because I think I thrashed my OS X partition.

It’s really a weird feeling.

A while ago (Nov ’03) to be exact I posted the lyrics to a song by Yes that I really like called, “Changes”

About a week ago I began to make some rather drastic changes in my life. One of which was beginning to swear off something that was bad for me. This wasn’t easy and caused some bumps and bruises.

For better or worse I will continue this in the next 2-3 weeks or so when I take an active attempt at making another change in my life. We’ll only have to hope that it is in accord with my true Will.

Overall, the changes will be subtle but in some cases… they will be more than obvious. I keep contemplating making some very personal posts (probably under heavy filtering) but then again, how many things have I started or promised on LJ only to let slip away.

Hrmn… will contemplate… Maybe more later.
