Before we put something on a cloud, let’s think how we can take it off… and I really think this is good idea. Like with backups of early days – you can backup, but can you restore? With all the excitement around cloud computing, all these applications will produce massive…
It has become obvious – social software has made revolutionary changes in our mind. Flickr, Twittter, MySpace, Facebook and many other social services have changed our way of communicating and collaborating. This leads me to ask a few other questions– what about enterprises?

The idea I’d like to raise is the possible evolution of micro-blogs and micro-content services as communication between people during the product lifecycle process. The most popular way that people communicate today…
