Lyiana: My name is Lyiana. My job title is self-cleaning. I rate Google Cloud a four. I use Google Cloud for pictures, saving documents and everything, important papers, pretty much just pictures. Thing I like about Google Cloud is I like how it saves stuff and doesn't share your security or anything. Sometimes I don't like sometimes it doesn't save everything that needs to be saved and you have to redo it half the time. But, yeah.
