For me personally I see two main advantages with moving more of my computing, files and information to the web. One is that I work at different places and with different computers from time to time. Second is that I want to be sure my files don't disappear in oblivion if my computer crashes, burns up or gets stolen.
Hence, here is my favorite services that I use today:
1)
Mozy (backup)
2)
Gmail (email / spam-filtering)
3)
Google Calendar (planning / reminders)
4)
Google Reader (rss-reader)
5) Xdrive (storage) removed since I noticed they don't support unicode characters in filename 5)
Dropbox (storage)
6)
Ta-da List (bullet-lists)
7)
Google Docs (office-suit)
8)
Delicious (bookmarks / to-read-list)
9)
Meebo (chat)
10)
Vyew (screen-cast)
There are of course more (such as Google Analytics, Flickr, etc) but a top 10 is a top 10.
They're all free (or have a free version) except Mozy but I don't feel I can trust backup to a free service. And Mozy is very reasonably priced anyway.
So - now I'd like to know - what are your favorite cloud apps?
