Apple gave me a chance to beta test cloud versions all three of its iWorks apps: Pages, Numbers and Keynote.
I really don’t use these apps as often as I used to, since most of my time is spent in Photoshop, but all three apps worked flawlessly. I could be mistaken, but I don’t think any of the apps were as full-featured yet as the comparable desktop versions, but I was easily able to create and edit documents in all three of them and save them into my account’s online storage.
The main advantage of working like this is that I can create or edit a document from any computer or device that has Internet access. I don’t need to have the file residing on my computer.
With apps and documents migrating into “the cloud” (a term that I never cared for), its obvious that our computer devices will eventually be nothing more than connections to our digital data residing on servers.
