Cloud Storage: Not Just for Rainbows and Unicorns (But Maybe a Few Cute Kitten Videos)
Cloud storage is basically renting out space on the internet. Think of it like a super secure self-storage unit, but accessible from your phone in your pajamas (because who wants to put on pants for errands anymore?).
Tip: Reading with intent makes content stick.
Here's the beauty: you can upload all your precious files - documents, photos, music, the embarrassing karaoke recordings you swore you deleted (spoiler alert: they haunt the digital ether forever) - and access them from any device. Need to prove to your friend group that you totally rocked that mullet back in the day? Cloud storage is your wingman (or wingwoman)!
