Unless you live under a rock on a deserted island, chances are you have heard about, considered using, or are moving toward “The Cloud.” It is now a prevalent and unavoidable topic of conversation that has finally made its way from computing industry professionals to the general populace. In the very near future, “The Cloud” will have become just another term in the lexicon of technology that people accept as a part of their daily computer activity, even if they don’t entirely understand it. Much like instant messaging, search engine, the web, and Wi-Fi, the cloud is rapidly becoming as much a part of our daily lives as the bowl of cereal we have to start our day.
