So I’ve had my first day of working in the cloud, it’s been interesting.

One thing I didn’t realize is how much I rely on Open Office. Who would’ve thought that someone who works in “Marketing” would spend so much time with their head buried in spreasheets.

I struggled through the day importing spreadsheets into google docs, but am having serious misgivings about working this way; it’s a bit like saying

“Hey Google, here’s a big-ass list of all our clients, keywords we’re targeting for them, and the link building strategies we’re implementing for each of them. Please open up a big can of whup-ass on us!”

I have mostly link building for clients on the books for today, so it should be fairly easy to stay in the cloud. More later in the week.

Oh, and if you haven’t pointed your twitter client at @dapimp yet, you’re missing out on a whole pile of daily nothingness!

This should be interesting…..

I think for this week, I’m going to work in the cloud.  Most of what I do is there anyway, I use Google Docs / Gmail / Dropbox etc, so I can pretty much sit down in front of any computer I like and get straight down to work. This week I think I’ll take it to the extreme…..

The only software I’m going to allow myself to use are the following:

• Google Chrome web browser
• A text editor (still gots ta edit the HTML/CSS/PHP of client sites, just going to do it without Dreamweaver – I think I’m seriously going to miss code highlighting!)
• Filezilla: Still gotta upload that shit!
• Skype / Google Chat – Gotta answer the boss when he calls!

If I get emailed spreadsheets / Word docs etc I’ll use Google Docs to open / edit them.

On with the fun, will keep you posted how I’m going.

Oh, and if you want to hear the regular disturbed ramblings of a cranky SEO, get your twitter on and point it at twitter.com/dapimp
