Just read this great post about Apple and Google and their versions/spins on the Cloud.

With iPad/iPhone and now OS X Lion, you don’t save documents anymore. They save automatically — but an easier way to think about it is that they just exist, as is, in realtime on all your devices. … They just exist. Who cares where as long as they’re right there on all your devices when you need them?

Jobs is right on track. The value that the user doesn’t need to know how it works, or where it goes, or what it does, they just need to USE IT is key. We DON’T CARE where, as long as it’s there when I need it – it just is.

Great read and perspective on the future of computing.
