The new buzzword in the industry is cloud computing and how it will revolutionise the way we interact with our applications and entertainment. My question is did we not already have a form of cloud computing since the internet was available for commercial use ? It was called web hosting and wait for we still use it today. With web hosting we could also upgrade packages as required or do colocation. So all we have really done is repackage what was already there with a few improvements to the technology base.

Maybe we should have actually called web hosting ver.2 as cloud computing is an upgrade with new features. I must say I like the way we are moving in cloud, but what I would really like to see is split hosting in the cloud. Where I could have a web app hosted partially in Asia and the US. this would afford my customers to have speedier access to the application and seeing that speed can make or break an application it would definitely be a plus.

Hey if anyone has an idea on how to do this ,then you could have the next bilion dollar idea.

Post some ideas on this, I would be very interested in seeing what ideas are out there.
