It's all about doing everything online

In the age of 4G some of the people in India are still using just 1G and 2G technologies, where as it has been a year after releasing the 3G in India. We step back of those technologies only because of lack of security in the cyber-world and flaws. Well one of the upcoming technology is cloud computing. Cloud computing is a technology that uses the internet and central remote servers to maintain data and applications. Cloud computing allows consumers and businesses to use applications without installation and access their personal files at any computer with internet access. This technology allows for much more efficient computing by centralizing storage, memory, processing and bandwidth. All you will need is a web browser to run all the applications on your computer.

Well here I am not gonna write about cloud computing here but it’s a type or example of cloud computing. Which is all about the online resources you can utilize it by your PC or laptop using a web browser. When a word “online” comes out every one thinks that it’s about only sending email and uploading and downloading some content on to the internet. But that doesn’t stops with that, there are lot more applications available on the internet which you can make use of.
