Cloud Computing (for Dummies)


From Dummies.com: "Cloud computing is the next stage in the Internet's evolution, providing the means through which everything — from computing power to computing infrastructure, applications, business processes to personal collaboration — can be delivered to you as a service wherever and whenever you need."

As I continue to work on the evolution of the MeNetwork (www.theMeNetwork.net), I get to see first-hand how cloud computing represents the "next stage" of growth for the Internet/real-time web sector. More importantly, it clearly demonstrates how the best and brightest minds will always innovate around changing consumer lifestyles (yea, I say that phrase everyday - get used to it). As lifestyles change - and get even more mobile - industries will adapt. Some, like those involving providers like Yellowbook and Yellowpages will move too slow and then from their death bed make a flurry of misguided acquisitions in a futile attempt to remain relevant. You heard that prediction here first folks (not that you need a crystal ball to figure that out).

Anyway, I'm proud of the quiet progress that The MeNetwork is making as the most innovative cloud-based mobile search tool. Soon, travelers across the USA, as well as the citizens of some our biggest cities will start using the MeNetwork to connect them to businesses big and small (more on that later). Please stay tuned.
