For Thing #16 I explored Google Docs. It's a really cool application that is free software for creating documents, presentations and spreadsheets online and having others on your team edit them. It's totally free and just like using Microsoft products which cost big bucks. I really liked the ability to collaborate and get things updated by others on a team and I see how this could be useful in the office and learning environments.
I was also interested in the information on cloud computing. There was an interesting article on it recently in Bloomberg Businessweek (March 7 issue) Called "The Power of the Cloud" which addressed cloud computing, what it is, and the battle between the major providers of these applications. It's BIG business.
