Cloud Computing

I am rather amazed at the concept of cloud computing and am yet unsure as to the specifics of what exactly qualifies for such a term. At first I presumed that cloud computing essentially included only mobile devices. These accessories are not anchored down and directly connected. Therefore, I believed that the word cloud computing resided only with them. I think, perhaps, this is how the term may have begun. However, after reading further this week that it also includes blogging and shopping on Amazon, then it leaves me a bit perplexed. I think the concept that makes things a bit more clear is that others can interact within an application. This interaction becomes "cloud communication"? Anyway, this is what I did to place a picture in my mind to better enable me to remember to include these formats within this terminological process. I think that the video above sounds absolutely dreamy; however, I do think that before we give up our disk drive, we need to remember the continual spiraling effect and the proclamation of irretrievable material. For my project I have selected to pursue making a user guide. I chose this because it is a project that I am most comfortable with; though, also because we have just started a new program and I think a user's guide would be very appropriate.
