"The computer industry is the only industry that is more fashion-driven than women's fashion"
While not untrue, I would have prefered a non-sexist analogy :) More seriously, I feel that the adoption of these "cloud computing" softwares comes from the fact that these softwares, beeing well integrated and easily accessible, relieve the users from the need to set up and maintain their own softwares (I even know several otherwise geeky people who are using google apps for simplicity). If only free softwares where cooperating as well as the google software stack does, for instance... Diversity is good but leads to complexity. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
