everything (most people) need to know about cloud computing

Psst! Hey! You! (Yeah you!) The one that keeps hearing the term “cloud computing” come up in meetings recenty. Yes, you — the one that nods his head, pretending he knows what it is. Right, YOU!

:)

I just found a great explanation of it online. It’s everything you need to know about “the cloud” but were afraid to ask. And now I’m posting it here for you. Go ahead. Print it out. Take it with you. Whatever you want. Just uh, next time ASK when you don’t understand something, OK? Geez.

This makes me wonder if it's a good trend and if the consequences are good for us users if CC is adopted @ large scale...

Hey there. The journal is getting super-spamalicious lately so I'm turning on comment moderation for a while. Sorry - I usually approve stuff pretty quickly, tho!
