There's more than one cloud in the sky

We've heard a lot about the Amazon/Red Hat cloud computing intitiative -- that's where Zonbu users store their files -- but now Google is thinking about getting into the cloud storage business as well, according to eWeek via the Wall Street Journal:

The Journal, citing people familiar with the matter, claims Google is finishing up a service that would let users store word-processing documents, digital music, video clips and photos on the Mountain View, Calif., company's servers.

With this cloud approach, users could access their data, ideally through a Google search box, from multiple computers and handheld devices with a password, breaking the traditional computing barriers of allowing users to access their data only from their machines.
