Subject: Cloud computing research report....
Interesting research published by Pew Research about Cloud Computing.

Among the findings, among all internet uses:

56% use webmail services
29% use online apps like Gdocs or Adobe Photoshop Express

http://www.datacenterknowledge.com/archives/2008/09/12/pew-data-shows-so
lid-uptake-for-cloud-apps/

Have to say I'm a bit skeptical on these numbers. For internet users,
webmail seems way too low, and the apps number seems way to high.

I can't find a link, but I thought I read someplace that Google Docs
were unknown to over 90% of people (both internet users and non users).

ha, was just having this conversation on FriendFeed.

webmail sounds about right too many -- plenty of people depend on their work
or ISP email address still.

online apps sounds about right to me too -- sure, most people still don't
know what Google Docs are, but if you look at every single service in the
cloud, I guarantee most people you/we know are using at least one of those
services, even if they don't recognize it as being "in the cloud".
(Presuming a bias toward tech among our peers.)

And how many have all three gmail, yahoo and hotmail accounts that are
probably being counted as independent mailboxes?

The other day i remember reading an article saying that most netizens
haven't heard of Google Docs at all.
Now this research study says otherwise.

Exactly.

I know a lot of folks, who are using several accounts as spamcatchers etc.

I found the link...

s-what-you-talkin-bout-willis/

Another Gartner study says that company adoption of 'cloud email' is a
paltry 1% and will grow to 20% by 2012....

Something's fishy here...
