Clouds are for rain....aren't they???

Where I come from if there were clouds you could be pretty sure rain wasn't far behind, but today on the news headlines I see celebs have been using "clouds" to store their nude pictures, eeeem call me old fashioned but if I have things I want to keep to keep private I don't ask a total stranger to look after them for me uh oh doh

For me the same goes for virus software companies, who in their right mind would let a totally unknown company scan their drive online crazy

Now said celebs are up in arms because their pictures are all over the net, allegedly, I say allegedly as I haven't bother to check, seeing as I've no idea who most of them are that would seem a bit pointless laugh rolling on the floor laughing laugh

Now if any bloggers have something private\incriminating they want to store I do have some space on a hard & would be happy to help out professor thumbs up

Hey Z,

No incriminating stuff to store on your cloud service for me. laugh Loose lips sink ships. :)
Hi Zman, My son gave me an I phone and I was going through it one day recently on my photo`s and have kept seeing this `cloud` thing... have never known what it was confused maybe it is the same I don`t know dunno Thankfully I have nothing in it.... and glad if it is open to anyones viewings. Was going to check with my kids what is was.

Its pretty scarey what can be made public viewing on the the internet.. uh oh

Like you the only clouds I know are .. the ones that are in the sky.

Just letting you know England has been sunny today and warm with pretty clouds in the sky. grin
Johnny, are you sure I can't tempt you, it's free.....ish laugh rolling on the floor laughing beer
Wallpos, cloud is just a trendy name for a bloody great storage system, whilst the idea might hold some appeal for those with space issues you wouldn't catch me using it sigh wine
laugh Zman;
I;m sorry about your last blog!........tip hat
By the way! It's off & on, cloudy here today!...............moping
angel we had a load yesterday, first time in ages but back to blue sky today cool wine
ZMan;
wine I'm iglad to here it, For you!..................rolling on the floor laughing
And to think stupid people like that get more money for one movie than most of us get in a lifetime....there is something seriously wrong somewhere. sigh
EK, at least they're getting some free publicity laugh actors have a tendency to like that banana cheering laugh wine
zman
Just reminds me of a Stones song...Hey You Get Off Of My Cloud!!...that being said...I don't think I would ever store anything of that nature in fear of exposure so to speak!!...lol...so thanks but no thanks on your kind offer!!...wine
Z that is maybe the whole idea in the first place. laugh
Lou, perhaps they'll call leaks from these clouds rain rolling on the floor laughing

Sorry to hear you won't be using my storage drive, I had cleared a large section for you just in case doh grin wine
EK, must admit the idea had crossed my mind as well, we must have been on CS too long uh oh always looking or the angle laugh
Whats that saying?..oh yeah..."If you have to have something stored..then you dont need it"...
Clouds are rain. This was what our science teacher taught us.

However, in our computer dominated world "cloud" is a software for storing digital data.

All softwares are vulnerable to hacking , so hence private matters that are stored today are expose to the public tomorrow.
Nam, it's a fine line between need & want there, as I suspect most of the storage in these clouds are pictures, true we don't actually need to keep old pictures, but I'd be really sad if I didn't have mine. Without storing them as digital data as you said yourself the other day, the chemicals on the old prints will eventually make them unviewable, so some form of storage is a necessity, but I won't be using a cloud for mine even though I have clothes on in all of them professor well most anyway blushing laugh rolling on the floor laughing beer
Benny, it's a fact of life as you say that someone somewhere is after your data, but the more famous you are the harder they will try beer
You need something if you have a lot of data Z, but nekkid pics is something I guess you shouldn't let out of your sight. dunno

I probably don't know most of them either and haven't bothered to look any of them up. laugh
Z unless you don't want people to have your private pictures for public view then no one should entrust these to anyone.

Anyways thanks Z but I'll keep mine in my own storage.
KN, I'm getting concerned now, none of the ladies seem to want my super safe storage facility moping

idea you could always store them as blog pics here thumbs up grin wine
Hey zman
Were have you stored the pic of you and me in the speedosconfused
Is if in a safe place
doh
LJ, but what if your house was burgled dunno doh much safer to post them all here on my blog professor wink wine
Simmo, don't worry that ones super safe, it's stored on two different blogs, so it's quite safe & nobody will ever see it uh oh laugh rolling on the floor laughing beer
Not a chance in hell Z. grin
KN, it was worth a shot grin
Zman Your kindness to store private pictures is truly heartwarming. You are a gentlman and I know you have all our best interests at heart..... I have avoided 'clouds' like the plague.
laugh I am thinking of Frank Sinatras Song 'Clouds '
happy place tmi motorcycle Computer phobe.
GG, I'm all heart laugh rolling on the floor laughing laugh wine
Hi Mr. Zm, I uploaded them just now @ www. zmountain.mancloud. Please make sure your cloud doesn't rain or leak. laugh
Usha, I'm checking them now, purely to make sure the data isn't corrupted professor liar then I just have to check & make sure I haven't been corrupted blushing laugh rolling on the floor laughing wine
But the conditions and terms never mentioned about checking them for corrupt bits. please keep them for your eyes only at least. So others won't be corrupt too. wow grin wine
Usha, Ok I've checked them uh oh wow I've locked them in the freezer so the drive didn't overheat professor laugh rolling on the floor laughing
Are there any charges for your service or is it free ?laugh
India, my service is completely free professor seems the money from clouds comes in the form of backhanders from the media etc grin wine
Now dont get excited !I have not made up my mind yetlaugh rolling on the floor laughing
India, as you've never posted a pic I reckon one of you might be worth a few bob on the open market grin
