We are bombarded with hundreds of advertising messages everyday and agencies continue to find new methods to reach target audiences. The next outlet: printers. Hewlett-Packard and Yahoo may have found a new way to grab our attention – and not necessarily in a good way. This initiative was announced at Internet Week 2010 last week.

I'm a big fan of cloud computing, like Google Docs, since it allows me to work from anywhere around the world and still have access to my files. Now, 'the cloud' has entered into the world of printers, with HP introducing the Photosmart e-All-in-One Printer.

I can be on vacation in Hawaii and still be able to print photos off my home printer. This would be perfect for your mom who always like to show-off photos of you to her friends. HP's new cloud printer won't need you worry about any connectivity issues between the printer and computer. Plus, you can even print from your favorite gadgets such as your iPad, smartphones, netbooks, etc.

How does this really work, you ask? Every HP ePrinter will have a specific email address, for you to email, in order to print the photo. If you want to print off your smartphone, make sure to download the HP ePrint mobile app.
