> I have a number of concerns about the new Google privacy policy, especially in
> the way they are breaking down the barriers between the various data silos they
> used to keep. As such I want to escape from gmail, google calendars, picassa
> and google docs, while still using an Android phone. I've now just about
> achieved this, using owncloud. In this talk, I'll give a brief motivation for
> not using the `free' services from Google, Apple or whoever, and then show how
> to run your own cloud service(s) for calendars, addressbook, random files,
> email, and photographs.
