Cloud Computing and Cloud Storage

Filed in archive Cloud Computing on April 11, 2009

It seems like I see more and more stuff about cloud computing and cloud storage recently. Much of it is coming out of the business media. Venture capitalists are interested in how much they can make off of it. Mainstream business publications (like BusinessWeek) see it as having some compelling implications for the business world.

In no particular order, here's an offering of some of the more interesting pieces on life in the cloud from the last couple of months. It's an interesting issue to try and keep up with...
