Hi,

I use Cloud services for just about everything.  Google Apps is a Cloud 
service, DropBox is a Cloud service and Apple’s iCloud is a Cloud service.  
Even Carbonite is a Cloud backup service.  In my opinion, these are safe and 
secure options.  Sure there are likely ways of hacking into some of this stuff, 
but then again, just about everything on the Net has the possibility of being 
intercepted in some manner or another, even when you’re simply surfing. or 
sending eMails.

Later…
