The cloud and genealogy from my point of view

So, after sending home 30 pounds of paper products that I either took with me or bought during RootsTech 2012 or made copies of those all important finds in Salt Lake, I have come to the conclusion ...........  The Cloud could be my friend.  I have a pain in my back from lugging my laptop, papers, etc back and forth from the library, not anymore will I do this.  I refuse to take the laptop, I will be getting a tablet of some kind that is user friendly and very light.  I will be able to retreive the needed data from a cloud.  I am thrilled with what I learned at RootsTech.  If anyone out there is into Genealogy and Technology this was the conference for you.  I learned a bit about a lot of things, and now need to educate myself on more.  Kinda cool actually.  I will be taking more on the subjects I did learn about, but wanted to test the water and see who out there did attend RootsTech2012 in Salt Lake City. 

Thoughts...........................  Give me a shout out there and let me know what you use and what works for you and what doesn't work.  Learning from our peers is the only way to go.
