Developer: Sharpcast
Price: $2.49 per month to $24.99 per month for 10GB to 250GB of storage
Availability: Out now
Pros: All your info, everywhere you need it.
Cons: I’ll be dragged kicking and screaming to pay for it; coming to terms with your online security fears
Overall: This service is good.  The system is dialed, works flawlessly.  Makes working on a desktop, laptop and mobile device a heck of a lot easier.

Right on the edge. The edge of being overwhelmingly excited and scared of how far reaching this change can be for me, personally.  SugarSync is making this leap possible.  What leap is that?  Why, its the one that means I don’t need to lug around my 30lbs laptop to customer visits.  And for me, that is huge.

Most criminals are stupid, but those who video themselves doing the crime and then post it on YouTube are in a whole new league. But to be fair it makes the lives of the police a lot easier as you already have video evidence of not only the person, but the crime committed. So surely moves to punish people for putting these videos on the internet are misguided (as they would then be less likely to put the videos on the internet and therefore making themselves harder to catch).

Anyway, it would appear one Judge has recognized this and come up with a different kind of punishment: where the offender must post an apology for their crime on the internet. Obviously this is not the only punishment that they will receive, but it does go some way as to making the offender look like a fool and to ensure that they lose any ‘respect’ they got for committing and posting the crime in the first place. An innovative punishment, and one that would probably work.

Just in case you were wondering what that 50% looks like, here are some comparison pictures of the new Jawbone and the original Jawbone.
