Is it possible to use adobe/photoshop through cloud computing?

[explainingcomputers]

There is a great cloud Photoshop clone called Pixlr -- it includes layers, a history brush and more. Google "Pixlr" or checkout my "Top Free Cloud Applications" video here for more.

So can I create some massive installation/server thing and have people pay me to use part of it?

[explainingcomputers]

Yes, that's the basis of the idea! Or you can rent server space from a big supplier (eg like Amazon Web Services) and sell it on to others -- and there are plenty of firms doing that.

Thank you for these informative videos. It's hard to find simple explanation on cloud computing that isn't laced with commercial incentives. Well done!
