To grow our empires we need to start thinking about the shift from fixed websites to the apps, iPads and multi-faceted web services of the future.
"Web services?" I hear you cry. For those of you who don't know, future technology buffs are already working on making your lives easier by moving your desktop programmes into the cloud (ahem, aka online).

Well, at the moment, if you haven't got that document on your laptop/phone/iPad etc, then, quite frankly, you may find the return journey home comes sooner than you expected (and I don't mean a good-will-gesture 'half-day').
"It's how we've always coped, so what's different?" You might add...
Sooner rather than later, people are going to be able to access all their programmes from the cloud (and it's already happening!). Imagine, turning on your computers and hey presto what have we got ourselves? Only an easier lifestyle full of stress-free document accessibility!
