WTH is the cloud computing all about?

That is a fair question, but the answer is rather complex:

ty, I been hearing about this for quite a while and everytime I Google'd or Bing'd the question, and I come back even more confused. It is interesting well back to more searching.

Here's the short of how I interpret it. You interact with files and such on a distant server/location. If I upload my family vacation photo album to Imageshack that's the cloud. If I watch a movie streamed from Netflix that's the cloud. If I upload files to share with others to Mediafire, that's the cloud.

Like I said that's how I interpret it. Just interacting with files hosted off site.

My poor brain was going to explode for the mass information overload so I will try again another day
