No Privacy on Amazon's Cloud - Care or Not?

Who couldn’t love the idea of the new Amazon Cloud Drive? You get at least 5GBs of free cloud-based storage, and its trivial to get 20GBs of free storage on Amazon Cloud Drive. Used in concert with the Amazon Cloud Player you get a fine cloud-based music player that can be used either from a Web browser or on Android tablets with the Amazon MP3 App. The new Amazon consumer cloud service also works well. It’s just too bad that you have to give up all privacy to use it.

Do you care about this?

SHOULD you?

News from the Missed April 5 class

Apologies for not giving you advance notice about class today. I live on a deadend street - and the end of the street was blocked with downed powerlines and a 75 foot downed tree. The tree was cleared out just after noon - power was not restored until after 4 pm.

It has obviously been an "interesting" day! I hope yours has been more routine than mine!

The syllabus says this:
April 7 DEADLINE: Capstone DB 2,3, myITlab Ch 3&4

April 12 Cover: WP Intro, WP1, WP2

Because we need to go over the concepts of the capstones in class together (especially the report designer and calculated fields), I'm going to change the deadline FOR THE CAPSTONES ONLY to next Tuesday night (April 12). That is going to collide a bit with the Word Processing stuff, but I don't see that as a major issue.

So the myITlab Access tests (chapters 3 & 4) are still due by Thursday night, 11:59 pm.
The last 2 Capstones are now due by next Tuesday, April 12, 11:59 pm.
