Instead of you storing stuff on your computer you store it on amazons dedicated servers - The cloud'.

It's like a USB drive that you can access from anywhere over the Internet. The documents/pictures/videos are stored on their servers. All you need to do is login from any PC over the Internet and you have access to all of your files. You can NEVER lose them. Make sure you have a VERY STRONG password. They make their money becuase they hope you'll run out of the 5GB and then pay for more.

Wouldnt say you can "Never lose them", they might go bust, or a huge mechanical failure.

They keep backups like you wouldn't believe on an industrial scale. Don't forget if you're paying for it the last thing they want is people turning up and saying they lost EVERYTHING. Universities etc, large businesses etc have moved to cloud storage. That's where they make the real money.
