I cringe because I really have no idea what the word means any more.. I
read something about CMS yesterday - 'cloud managed services'. ;-) I'm

Y'know, about 12-13 years ago, IBM had that funky "e" drawn up for
"e-business", trying to sell a "computing utility".. the next
generation Universal Server Farm.
Oddly enough, the utility IBM envisioned is partially implemented as

A few years ago, my father asked me about cloud computing. I told him that
it was the same as the old days when we used teletypes and 110 baud rubber
