Dang it Ted! I was trying to look cool with a buzz word! I'm still working on how to use "container" like all the other guys at the water cooler...

Yeah, mostly I just need to write down stuff I can't/won't remember...like the public IP addresses/mask/gateway for client's routers. I was on-site yesterday at a client site because they had electricians in the building flipping breakers and it somehow whacked the router/firewall/switch network room and equipment (all on UPSs.) So I'm in the building with no way out except with my Android phone. I had all the needed info...on my computer in the office. Ideally I could write this stuff down and leave it with the equipment, but I have to deal with a lot of "Hey! I know a lot about computers! I can fix that!" helpers.

I'll look into Redmine. Thanks!

Mike

I need a way to store business-related notes and have them accessible from

application I wrote in VFP, which works great, but if I'm out of the
office, I have to have remote access back to my computer. So, I'm looking
for a "cloud" (oooooh, buzzword warning!) solution.

Bzzt! You don't want it in the cloud, you want a web app. Or an Android
app. Or a PIM that syncs between your devices. You don't want a cloud. You
can't find anything 'cause of the cloudiness.

I use different apps for different client situations. Wunderlist is awesome
for, well, lists. Pivotal Tracker for project management, tasks, deadlines
and related notes. Redmine for a combo ticketing system, wiki, and document
repository. Strongly recommend you consider something like Redmine - a
self-hosted CMS so you can store, well, stuff, since you seem to want notes
(blog, wiki), and media (CMS) and stuff.
