Pack up that briefcase, empty your desk, and kiss the old cubicle goodbye. Courtesy of today’s increasingly high-tech mobile communications and business devices, the modern office fits in any laptop bag -- and goes wherever you do. Now that smartphones double as portable Internet access points and personal assistants, and pint-size document scanners and notebook PCs enable greater productivity than stationary desktop counterparts, the verdict is in: Telecommuting is the new nine to five.

9-1-2009
IT’S JUST BEFORE midnight in downtown Hollywood -- Hollywood, Florida -- and the belly dancers are doing crazy things with their hips for the sidewalk diners outside Taverna Yiamas. Down Hollywood Boulevard, girls in way-too-short, way-too-low hot pants are cozying up to a group of Russian immigrants in front of Spice Resto-Lounge. Next door, outside PRL Euro Cafe, the Rasta crowd is sipping Polish beer and eating slices of takeout pizza from Mauro’s Pizza. I’m headed to the more sedate confines of the Sushi Blues Cafe to hear Bluesman Dave & Bonga La Roc Jr. while noshing on some Japanese drinking snacks called otsumami. Frankly, I had not anticipated such a wild scene here.

Featured applications don’t just operate like everyday desktop counterparts, sparing users the need for expensive hardware and incessant load times, they also promise to revolutionize the entire software industry with an anticipated $42 billion business by 2012, per market-research firm IDC. Here’s how cloud computing is already reshaping the way we work and play.
