Collaborating with coworkers and the cloud

- By now, we all know the story of the creative cloud.…Adobe switched its business model…from a buy if you like it box product…to a subscribe when you need it dynamic app.…Think of it as Adobe's version of the natural shift…from mix tapes to Spotify, only more graphic-y.…In any event, you know the moment that Adobe…shifted to a subscription model they'd start bandying…about the word cloud, cloud this and cloud that,…we're all so big and fluffy.…And as soon as you got the cloud involved,…Adobe would begin encouraging us to collaborate…with each other, and that's where…the libraries panel comes in.…
