Ubiquity
And on this tiny little island in the middle of nowhere sitting by the pool I have my choice of at least 20 different wi-fi hotspots with 24x7 high speed Internet.
Just before writing this I quickly checked Salesforce to look at our sales pipeline and logged into Intacct to check our executive dashboard and to approve expenses reports for my team. Before that I used skype to have a video call with my wife and six year old twins back in Palo Alto.
Just a couple of years ago this would have been impossible. It was unthinkable to access the company financial and CRM systems from outside the office, much less poolside from a remote island in southeast asia. And personal video calls were science fiction.
I can't think of a clearer example of how the combination of on-demand business applications, collaborative technologies and ubiquitous Internet access are going to transform the way we live and work.
