I find that I largely prefer the single-purpose apps, because they tend to be much better at what they do. In fact, I have (or still have access to) probably close to 100 of those types of apps on my phone and it hardly takes any space. No inconvenience whatsoever. I am fairly certain that this will never change... developers don't have to pay to have their apps remain listed. So that means their apps will stay on there until they decide otherwise. Which means this 'holocaust' will undoubtedly never happen. <br />Even the big names have begun to break up their suites to give better access for individual needs. Which was why we had to deal with big software suites in the first place... nobody really had the resources to create something competitive with the backing of a big name like MS or Adobe. Which allowed the big names to take advantage of us by throwing in unneeded fluff and charge us for it. Now there are any number of apps created by individuals or small start-ups that can do similar jobs, easier and faster... and ultimately, cheaper. <br />Absolutely no way things will 'return' as you think. Technology never steps backwards... always adapting and moving forward.dustinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3613882626879051358.post-34814214666445859732011-07-13T21:58:19.105-07:002011-07-13T21:58:19.105-07:00Really, now that I went back and checked my Facebo...Really, now that I went back and checked my Facebook account, Facebook seems like the cheap, ghetto version of social networking.

I am able to do everything I need to do with my phone... on my phone. It is, for the most part, a stand-alone system... with only a few minor exceptions (no more than a standard PC deals with), most of which will be addressed in the iOS 5 update. But, to be clear... as it stands... I do not need the cloud to run my device. <br /><br />However, as far as the cloud is involved... It is my understanding that the point of the cloud is to promote inter-connectivity between and allow the access of content from a number of sources on as many (if not all, in time) devices as the user demands. In essence, to remove the on-going problem of divided content, information loss and ultimately (hopefully to at least some degree) proprietary hardware/software. The cloud cannot fail. Our technology is more than capable (and ever growing)... it is in high demand by the general public. There is no 'if' involved. Only 'when.' <br /><br />When you say things like 'quaint toy' or defining the cloud as a 'concept' or the public's 'fascination' with smart phones... I really begin to question your knowledge of current technology and the direction that its progression is heading. As if you are still stuck in the late 90s where your computer sat in your home with fledgling communication abilities and, for the most part, we users went about our day-to-day without much thought otherwise. I'm afraid that you are still running 5-10 years behind... that that is my impression. As a fellow technologist, these changes discussed should have long since been accepted... as the general public is long past the questioning phase and well into the consumption phase.Dustinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3613882626879051358.post-2733218560181463352011-05-24T09:34:25.598-07:002011-05-24T09:34:25.598-07:00There are a number of installation processes for p...There are a number of installation processes for programs that conflict with many different computer security suites.
