The Day in the Cloud Challenge

Monday, June 22nd, 2009

In just a couple of days, Virgin America Airlines and Google are teaming up for the “Day in the Cloud Challenge.”  While literally up in the clouds, Virgin is hoping to highlight their in-flight wi-fi access by allowing flyers to compete in this Cloud Computing scavenger hunt (though we Earth-dwelling mammals will get to participate too).

From their site:

On June 24th, we hope you’ll join us from the ground or onboard any Virgin America flight for the Day in the Cloud challenge, a scavenger hunt unlike any you’ve ever clicked through. All you’ll need is a net connection, a Google Account, and the warm, comforting glow of your computer screen.

It will be interesting to see what comes of this, but nice to see non-tech companies embracing our beloved Cloud.  We’ll all get our heads (and directory structures) up there soon enough.

divShare Gets a Makeover!

Friday, June 19th, 2009

As you have probably noticed (unless you’re somehow using divShare on a 16 color VGA screen), the entire look of the divShare site has been updated.  We hope you like the new colors, logo, etc., but the most exciting changes are still on the way!  We want to make this the easiest way to share, post, and store all of your important files on the Internet.

Don’t keep your only copy of priceless photos, videos, and work files on your hard drive–back them up quickly and easily to your divShare account!  Never lose a photo, never bounce an email, and never share a broken link!

We hope you like the changes we’re making, and please know we’ll never stop improving your divShare experience!
