Why use an online timer when you can use better offline timers? Prisma doesn't take up a lot of space and is brilliant.

Not having to constantly carry a USB stick in case you want to see your times or record new ones when you are somewhere else or if you changed computer/switch between several is considered a great benefit by some (me included). This is a great use of cloud computing. Sure, for the timers that won't let you log in and save times, offline is just as good or better. But for the ones who do, it's very convenient. And if your facing yourself without an internet connection .. sorry, does that happen anymore? Joke aside, I think you got my pointWhy use an online timer when you can use better offline timers?

I don't know where you live, but I do know that Sweden is in the forefront of internet infrastructure development, which is one reason I like living herehappens here so........
All internet timers are in the cloud, speaking of the entire internet as the cloud. I was more referring to the fact that all my times are saved online, or in the cloud if you wish, which makes it easy to watch or add to my times wherever I am. In the rare occassion that I'm not near a comuter, I can access my times on my phone, and because my phone has a physical keyboard, I can even use the timer if I wish too. I prefer a touch screen timer in that case though.The actual timer on the 'cloud'?
