Folks -- I need to find a moment to add all the new people in the comments as well as some new folks I found on Twitter. But note that you actually have to be posting on Twitter to be included, otherwise the list becomes useless.

Two weeks ago I sat on a panel discussion on Cloud Computing with some of the heavy hitters inthe game. As an independent software vendor, my part of the presentation was to discern truth from hype in all of the claims being made. Needless to say, I got a lot of feedback--so much so that I wrote a follow up article on it:
http://www.smartertools.com/blog/archive/2008/11/20/cloud-computing-challenges-benefits-and-the-future.aspx
It is important for us to remember what Cloud Comuting is and what it is not.
Be well,

A great cloud service that I use is Egnyte. It allows me to share, store, and backup important information. Egnyte also offers a local cloud which provides off-line access.
