Cloud computing is just a fancy buzzword for what we've had for years. Nothing special-

Please, Larry Ellison started "cloud computing" in the end of the 90s. I just work in a company that the entire "ERP" was online, in the Oracle data center.
Just check this video with Charlie Rose in 1998 or around:
This is just BS about "cloud computing" like if they have invented something super new.

It's like facebook...I've never understood how facebook is anything different than a message board mixed in with chat and some rss feeds and other technologies that're as old as the internet.
The current direction of things is UI. The internet and networks have been pretty much as they are for over a decade but people need things spoon fed to them in pretty fonts and streamlined interfaces. This exposes the toxicity of a capitalist system...it demands "progress" even when things already work.

SAAS and Cloud computing is all the same. He's so right about it! All of it runs on tons of Databases, Hardware and Applications. It's no innovation in technology. It's just a Business Model utilising existing technology. Google has been running on the cloud for ages now...It's time we came up with something that truely changed the playing field. Is cloud computing the Future? Well, It's always been there and sure some medium-small businesses will move toward it but Not the large Enterprises.

He's doing a drunken style standup routine [sitting down] because despite predicting cloud computing 15 years ago, he failed to capitalise on it - so he feels he has to mock it now. And that's the sad truth here. This may be entertaining on some level, but so is watching the drunk on the street trying to sing like Elvis - to a lamp post.
