Cloud The future of computing

This, according to an article in the Canada-based Financial Post, is the future of computer technology and has the potential of earning billions of dollars in revenues to companies that embrace it.

Citing a research published by Merrill Lynch entitled “The Cloud Wars: $100+ billion at stake,” the article warned that IT companies that do not adopt the paradigm shift into “cloud computing” in time would eventually be left out.

The Merrill Lynch study explained that “cloud computing,” which the Financial Post described as “the burgeoning technology concept,” was seen as a $160-billion addressable market opportunity, including $95-billion in business and productivity applications, and another $65-billion in online advertising.

The Financial Post article said Cloud, unlike traditional computing, was free from the confines of desktop-based software. It noted that computer terminals run and store programs from a third-party server connected to the Web, eliminating the chance that work is lost if the computer crashes.

With applications automatically allocated on the server, clients are only charged for the space and services they use, bypassing the need to buy pricey in-house hardware, the Financial Post article added. It said the Merrill Lynch study noted that there are at least 10 companies that will have increasing exposure to cloud computing that they identify as “core plays.”

“Cloud equivalents exist today for most business and personal productivity apps,” the Financial Post article quoted Merrill Lynch analyst Justin Post.

Social bookmarking a cloud implementation

Social bookmarking is a very simple concept. For a average or intermediate user it is not easy to keep track of all the websites he visited and wished to visit again as he found something useful there.
problems without social bookmarking-
1. Sometimes you accidentally lost your browser’s history.
2. After uninstalling your browser all your data lost.
3. May be you are on someone else computer.

Social bookmarking solves out all this problem with just steps -
1.you just have to choose a bookmarking service and create a account there.
2.Next thing you have to do is to use a addone on your browser and login with this addone .

Some of the best bookmarking services are here
1
del.icio.us is a social bookmarking site that has rapidly taken off even more in popularity since being purchased by Yahoo. I use del.icio.us probably the most out of all these top picks, particularly to post interesting sites that I’ve found around the Web. I also subscribe to quite a few del.icio.us tags, such as popular and reference, and I get all the sites tagged with these keywords in my RSS reader of choice, Bloglines.

2
Digg is social bookmarking and social networking gone a little crazy due to the fact that anyone can submit a Digg (site), and then anyone can comment on those same Diggs. For me the most interesting feature of Digg has to actually be the comments on the sites and stories, since the Digg community is not shy about letting folks know how they feel about a particular Digg. Primarily focussed on geeky, technology-type items.

3

Reddit is a social bookmarking Web site that works much like Furl and del.icio.us: you register a username and password, and then start submitting and sharing your bookmarks. Reddit is similar to del.icio.us in that users are encouraged to vote on the links and stories that they feel are deserving of being in the top dog spot: it’s kind of a popularity contest, so to speak.

4

Furl gives users the ability to save copies of any Web page, search within your own personal archive of Web pages, and share what you find. People use Furl to create their own personal shopping lists, real estate directories, job searches, student research papers, etc. This may just sound like a fancy way of saying bookmarks; but the thing about Furl is that you can access it from any computer, which means that your Favorites will go with you.

5

With Clipmarks, you can clip the best parts of web pages. Whether it’s a paragraph, sentence, image or video, you can capture just the pieces you want without having to bookmark the entire page.

6

The beauty of StumbleUpon, to my mind: you are able to take advantage of a vast network of dedicated Web searchers who are finding utterly brilliant sites and sharing them with you. I do have to warn you, though – StumbleUpon is an incredibly addicting way to search the Web. I found myself up till 1:30 AM one weekend, blearily clicking the Stumble! Button over and over again, because the quality of the sites are just so amazing; you just keep on coming across stuff that instantly merits a bookmark of your own.

My personal recommendation delicious and stumbleupon

Power of social media “The new black”

When I started thinking  about this  blog my mind got stucked with this one. Today social media is a new biggest revolution after Industrial revolution , social media overtaken  the trend of porn on the internet.

I would like to share something with you ..

years to reach 50 million users

Radio 38 years

TV 13 years

Internet 4 years

I pod 3 years

Facebook added 100 million users in less than 9 months

I pod application downloads hits 1 billion in 9 months

currently youtube is the second largest search engine having 100000000 videos

so coming to the point the power of social media lies in the fact today every big brand have an employee group dealing with the social image of the product they are providing ,even various of the management institutions are providing with at least a short-term course or activities to make their students aware of the current trend.

The social image of any product now not decided by the advertisement status or any thing like that but now social media brought a new term “”peer  recommendations”", companies are trying to make a better image of their product because the social image brings  a new revolutionary way to real-time consumer interaction and branding of the product.

I have not seen yet the new movie on “The social network” but I know this is going to bring a another benchmark for Facebook.

Today searches for biggest brands contains about 25% content from the user-generated content this fact contains the most important and powerful thing about the social media.
