Is "cloud" just a slick marketing term for "outsourced"?

Ever find yourself not trusting something or someone from the first moment - but not knowing why?

For instance the first moment you saw a politician, instantly not trusting them but you just couldn't place why?

*cough* John Edwards *cough*.

Well that's what I thought the first time I heard about "cloud computing".

Seems you missed my point with the link. It’s possible and I do—regularly.

Yea, I know that. As I said, I wouldn’t want personal info out in the cloud.

Of course what I want and what the gubment wants, are two different things. And the divide has only gotten larger over time.
