In my opinion, the move of our lives, information, personal, private, to cloud computing is slowly becoming inevitable. With this move, apps that create a meaningful connections within this cloud will be essential in allowing people to grasp the full power of information, leading to greater expansion of cloud information synthesis. More emphasis, in my opinion, will need to be placed in apps that can synthesize the users vast repository of information and return the user with a smaller subset of useful information to make choices with.
