Working in the Cloud

Good news, everyone.  You're already working in the cloud.  The primary way we do this now is through the email services provided by Microsoft's Office365 environment.  So, this means you can startup a new computer login and you keep all of your emails. Also, if you have used the OneDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive, these are another form of cloud services that provide storage options.
