This is your host, Denise Boomer and Dr. Bee Boomer, welcoming you to this weeks edition of the Baby Boomer Technology on PodcastForBoomers.com.

This week we are talking about The Cloud.

Cloud computing has gotten a lot of press lately. There are new small inexpensive computers that are designed for "cloud computing". So what is cloud computing?

Simply it is using the Internet for all of your needs. For example if you need to write a paper, you could use Google Doc's and it is saved on the Internet. This of the Internet as your own hard drive and program platform.

The biggest advantage to the user is that most of the applications are free and you could use your smart phone. So you have access to your work 24 hours a day every day of the year as long as you have an Internet connection.

That is why the new smaller computers designed for cloud computing are so cheap. They don't need a lot of power, the Internet supplies all the power you need.

So consider cloud computing for yourself, family, business. Yes it could work for your business too. Soon you will not need a large IT department only a high speed reliable Internet connection.
