Is Cloud Computing a Clown Car?
Cloud Computing does have a historical precedent. Back in the 50s and 60s, huckster salespeople sold South Florida swampland to gullible northerners. It became a clich�, popularized by movies such as Glengarry Glen Ross.

While some of those land parcels remain worthless, others became communities such as Marco Island, Fort Myers, and Sarasota. Many of the people "ripped off" by the real estate scams ended up making a fortune.
As Leonard Rosen,one of the most notorious Florida Developers, ruefully once said, "All our lies turned out to be true".
Let's hope the same thing happens to Cloud Computing!
