Travel Tips: Cloud Computing

When people travel, many people take photos. Some people write their journals. They make friends, and exchange their contacts. These are common ways for memories.

However, also many people loose these happy memories because of wildfire, tsunami, quakes, computer crash and so on. Old days, people needed to give up for these. Now people can use "cloud drive" to keep the memories.

Many people already have tried these kind of cloud drives. Some weeks ago, I wrote some processes to plan your travel. Also these web apps can keep your memories.

On your travel:

• You can upload a lot of videos on Youtube, Vimeo and so on.
• You can print photos from Picasa/Snapfish, and send them to your home.
• You can write your travel journal online with your blogs, Evernote, or OneNote.
• You can store your favorite sound on cloud storages like Photos and Videos. 

After your travel, you can rearrange all of them as one big memory with your computer. You can print all. You can write a digital book for other travelers. The most important thing is that you can keep all things for your future on the cloud.

Jack Kerouac, who is the writer of "On the Road," used a lot of journals on his travel. According to some internet sites, he wrote "On the Road" with his travel journals.

If Jack Kerouac is the current generation, he may use iPad to write and keep them on iCloud. He may keep photographs and videos on Photo Stream :-)

I think everyone can be next Jack Kerouac with cloud computing. If you loose everything on your travel, you can recover with web apps.

"On the Road" (2012)

Here is one film. "On the Road"(2012) is open December 21 in the United States. Sal, Dean and Carlo are good friends in New York. By sheer chance, they decide to travel together with Dean's girl friend, Marylou. Sal aims to be a writer, and write the progress of the travel on his journal. They go across the United States, and experience a lot of fortunes. If you watch this film, Sal and Dean's crossroad of their lives are very impressive.

In youth time, everyone feels some sweet and bitter moments. You must remind such the moments, and force to think about your life.

Garrett Hedlund, is the mysterious Dean Moriarty. He shows some "knacks" in the film. Kristen Stewart is Marylou. If she is not in the story, it may be a little broody. Sam Riley is the writer, Sal Paradise. He is a little shy and reasonable.

Maybe, you long to be a backpacker when you watch this.

Personally, I have already watched this at a film festival. I remember a lot of guys who passed by. They grow with their generation, and be gentlemen. For me, it was a little sweet bitter chocolate.
