Hang onto as much software as you can. Clouds can blow away ;) Remote software providers can go bankrupt, sections of the internet can be destroyed by terrorists, war, etc. All things are not always permanent… but enjoy these things while we can :)

The balance keeps changing. Sometimes I look at things being done and think “Great, now I can do this anywhere!”. But do I want to? Does it makes sense? It's coming, there'll be no stopping progress, I *know* that.

But I find I'm weary, and will implement these technologies carefully. I do enjoy watching what's possible develop, though.
