EXCERPT | " ... The tech industry is going to finally let us store our own music in the cloud. We can then listen on our mobile and web devices from anywhere. Amazon is first out the gate with it’s Cloud Drive and Player. Google and Apple will surely soon follow. Here’s some thoughts. I hope it’s easy to get my massive music collection online. I will be glad to have my collection anywhere I can log-in to the net. I’m glad my music collection will be backed up online. I hope it works over 3g or it’s useless.

Ship Tracks, Pacific Ocean*
"The maze of cloud streams in this image is the result of exhaust from ship engines. The clouds form when water vapor condenses onto particles in the exhaust, which act as seeds for the clouds. The ship tracks are brighter than the other clouds in the image, because they are made of more plentiful, smaller particles.
The image above was taken in March 2009 over the Pacific Ocean south of Alaska by the MODIS instrument on NASA’s Terra satellite. The tracks below were captured by Terra in the same area in April 2002. Below that is an image of ship tracks in the Pacific Ocean near the northwest coast of North America taken by the Aqua satellite in January 2008.
