CloudViews Unplugged: April 2012
I have started a new video series with George Watt, called “CloudViews Unplugged”, talking about cloud computing! We try to keep it short and snappy, and it is pretty good fun. It’s just about 10 minutes each episode (sometimes we might go a little over – sorry!). We cover cloud news, look at what is new and cool, and go back and forth on the hot topics in cloud computing.
In the first episode, of CloudViews Unplugged, we discuss the U.S. Patriot Act, rogue IT, cloud’s impact on IT jobs, Doro’s mobile apps, CloudCode, and more!
