They need to get SMS working on Grand Central and combine it with GMail so they can offer 1 bucket for voicemails, emails, SMS messages, and Google Talk messages. Then integrate Android with all these services!

And when I'm mobile (usually around Central London) there are times when I can't get an internet connection even with my mobile broadband and wifi accounts. As long as this is a fact of life I will be very cautious about offloading my data and applications to cloud services.

I appreciate Dave Girouard’s assertion that it is still the early days for App Engine and cloud computing platforms in general. In particular, he explained the fact that there are two different audiences for cloud-based services. The first are actual end users (businesses and individuals) who use the applications (e.g. www.salesforce.com) and second the developers who are building out applications on cloud computing platforms. Clearly, the massive adoption is taking place in SaaS services right now. Furthermore, it is more likely that PaaS services will take off before there is widespread cloud computing platform adoption, as part of the value to moving to the Web is that someone else has built the application for you and allowed you to take advantage of related applications in an ecosystem. We recently published a blog post on this subject with the purpose of simplifying the discussion via images and cutting through the confusion.

I was very enthusiastic about deploying some of my company's services on Amazon or Google's server farms. However, I've had to rethink the whole idea in light of the recent, infamous outages on the Amazon grid. We'll probably still go ahead with it but at a very cautious pace. So far, the volume deals we get with our hosting companies aren't breaking the bank. Niyi, CEO Trafficspaces.com You make a good point.

Besides Email and Salesforce.com - it just does not appear that Cloud Computing will take off for mid level businesses. Perhaps budget conscious SOHOs - but with the price of software and mobile devices being so cheap and with so many alternatives - it does not appear that SAAS will take a big bite out of the traditional market That was a good idea – giving a synopsis of the questions before each audio answer.
