LibreOffice on the cloud - Open365

silly is as silly does;

          although now I have some questions:

         (1) when would one use LO on-line?
         (2) if one places everything on-line, then when these satellites
falter - or fail - how would one retrieve their data?

         to me, this 'only being on-line' thinking leaves me with the same
thought as when these skyscrapers - continually being built even taller -
are situated in the midst of concreted land ... what will they do if the
electricity should go off for whatever reason? - the elevators won't
operate, their 'phones won't operate, they don't have a pantry of food
staples, ... ... ... ???

Well, the answer to both in a sense is "in circumstance which at the moment force you on to Google Docs or Office 365". While I agree that the cloud is over-hyped, it has it's uses. And as always, regular backups are the thing, because whether the cloud or your local system, stuff *will* get fried at the most inconvenient moment.

So yes, I'd love LO in an online form ... if the localizations come with it.

Hi everyone!

To me, cloud stuff solves an emergency or works as backup. But as
day-to-day thing to use every day and for every purpose... no,
thanks.
