What you wanted to know about Cloud Computing

Google Cloud ComputingWhen you are into this kind off stuff you probably hearing more and more about Cloud Computing. Unfortunately there are a lot of different explanations for this term. I like to use the following description if people ask me what it is.

Cloud Computing is a system module for use of applications with the use of the internet. The cloud is a metafor for the internet. Web 2.0 is a good example when we talk about cloud computing.

Cloud Computing is the new ASP, Software as a service! No need to install any application on your pc, no you just use the net to save, edit and create your documents for example.

A nice example to Cloud Computing is Google! I personally are really into the Google Cloud at the moment. I use Gmail as Outlook replacement and Google Docs as a replacement for Office. I still have Office installed but more and more use Docs to get the job done. Of course Office has far more functions then Docs, but Google gets the job done! Most people don’t use the great amount of options Office gives you, so Google Docs is a nice alternative for those.

Portfolio: New Photo’s on Stock Exchange

Saturday, March 21st, 2009

It’s been a while since I uploaded anything on the net. Last week I was going to some old image folders I was planning to delete. During that I ran into some nice old photo’s I had lost though out the years. I decided to upload them to SXC because I didn’t saw any similar photo’s on their. They got approved almost immediately!

After a lot of rejections on SXC I kind off forgot to use it anymore. By finding these two photo’s I’m back at Photography again! Not only at work but also a t home.

You can view the large photo’s here.
