How many of them could function entirely within a browser, provided proper scripting and rendering support? My answer to that tells me that I could remove my hard disk from the tower, load up Google Chrome (or my own WebKit version of a browser) and save preferences, cache and secure data to a flash drive. Your mileage will vary, but I&#8217;ve never used more than a GB of HD space for anything other than large video and image files, and even then the cost of storing those huge files on the &#8216;cloud&#8217; (a distributed data store) is significant;y cheaper than the actual cost of.. buying a HD.</p><p>By the way, I suspect the largest threat against mandatory cloud storage will be &#8220;but I want to keep MY porn on MY computer,&#8221; in which case one could employ a home media server. They&#8217;re cheap, and in a few years may be the only HD you will need in your home. The second threat, or reason to keep your old desktop apps is..</p><p>Photoshop.</p><p>Web-based alternatives to PhotoShop just can&#8217;t handle resource-intensive filtering and rendering, but deferred OS modules (that only run when needed, like delay-loaded DLLS in the Windows API) could process and return heavy calculations outside of the browser space. This will of course recreate GDI+ (the 2d graphic API system on Windows) while Windows 7 offers support for Aero technology, which is pretty much DirectX (which uses your video card and offers 3D capability) but that will be figured out soon enough.</p><p>The way malicious software is dealt with may be interesting to watch. Right now, it&#8217;s a huge business for everyone but the consumer since the incentive for both the virus writer and anti-virus provider is in the millions of dollars, annually. In the future, I predict that each application (which you can conceptualize right now as a browser tab) will be &#8216;protected&#8217; from the other apps, and prevented from running code that will bring down the system. Windows 7 does this, as does Google Chrome, but both have already been compromised &#8211; but if the future&#8217;s cloud-based OS can figure that out, it could effectively end most of the consumer PC protection market since almost all anti-virus tests will be processed in datacenters by enterprise-level software.</p><p>I guess in closing, this is just all my thoughts about how future consumer computers will be run, and is mostly based on technology that we already have in Google Chrome and in other places, along with some holes filled in with my imagination.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://hoodmonkey.com/future-of-software-and-consumer-computers/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Story of My Life</title><link>http://hoodmonkey.com/story-of-my-life/</link> <comments>http://hoodmonkey.com/story-of-my-life/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 07 Apr 2010 19:34:09 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>digg</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[humor]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://hoodmonkey.com/?p=353</guid> <description><![CDATA[(02:24:12 PM) MMA360Tapout: whats up, got any good stories (02:24:43 PM) hoodmonkey84: just one: some random asshole IM&#8217;ed me asking me for site content, and I ultimately blocked him (02:25:11 PM) MMA360Tapout: lmao thats funny (02:25:13 PM) MMA360Tapout: what was it]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(02:24:12 PM) <span style="color:red;font-weight:bold;">MMA360Tapout</span>: whats up, got any good stories<br /> (02:24:43 PM) <span style="color:blue;font-weight:bold;">hoodmonkey84</span>: just one: some random asshole IM&#8217;ed me asking me for site content, and I ultimately blocked him<br /> (02:25:11 PM) <span style="color:red;font-weight:bold;">MMA360Tapout</span>: lmao thats funny<br /> (02:25:13 PM) <span style="color:red;font-weight:bold;">MMA360Tapout</span>: what was it</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://hoodmonkey.com/story-of-my-life/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Search Engine Keyword List for Blind People</title><link>http://hoodmonkey.com/search-engine-keyword-list-for-blind-people/</link> <comments>http://hoodmonkey.com/search-engine-keyword-list-for-blind-people/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 16 Mar 2010 17:01:00 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>digg</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[humor]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://hoodmonkey.com/?p=344</guid> <description><![CDATA[Warning: this post may be offensive.

Proceed with caution.</em></p><p>Search marketing is a huge industry, generating billions of dollars of income every year and growing exponentially. In the past I have created software to streamline your SEO and PPC driven business tasks and I have realized there is a huge opportunity that most of us miss on a daily basis: effectively marketing to blind people who use Google. Most of us simply stop at making our sites work well with screen-readers, but the untapped riches lie in areas which have yet to be explored. Behold, the ultimate keyword list for internet marketers who target blind people:<br /> <img src="http://cdn.hoodmonkey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/keywords.png" alt="Search phrases for blind people" title="blind people keywords" width="436" height="491" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-345" /></p><p>Godspeed in your marketing efforts.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://hoodmonkey.com/search-engine-keyword-list-for-blind-people/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Searching for Scissors on Google</title><link>http://hoodmonkey.com/searching-for-scissors-on-google/</link> <comments>http://hoodmonkey.com/searching-for-scissors-on-google/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 15 Mar 2010 17:55:45 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>digg</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[humor]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://hoodmonkey.com/?p=337</guid> <description><![CDATA[I was trying to find information on scissors on Google, but found nothing.
