IBM's Cloud Computing Rollout

From the page: "Wireless Backhaul

***** From the page: "You can't read a technical Web site these days without some mention of so-called cloud computing. Cloud computing is really nothing more than the provisioning of computing resources (computers and storage) as a service. Along with that comes the ability to dynamically scale the service to additional computers and storage in a simple and transparent way. All this is similar to the ideas behind utility computing, in which computing resources were viewed as a metered service, as is the case for more traditional utilities (such as electricity or water). What's different is not the goal behind these ideas but the existing technologies that have come together to make them a reality. "

The new service is called Google Mobile Book Search. And as of today, it's accessible to all iPhone/iPod touch and Android users. Instead of being a separate application, the Book Search service is accessed by simply pointing your mobile browser to books.google.com/m, which brings up an optimized user interface for either iPhone or Android handsets. The service allows title, author, or subject searches from the over 1.5 million public domain books inside the country, and over 500,000 available outside the U.S. In addition, featured books in various sections like business and economics, the classics, science and math, travel, and more can be browsed. You can access the custom books selection anytime by clicking on the "Recently viewed books" under the "My books" section.
