  1. responsesource.com/news/72058/dat… Skyscape nominated for "European Award for Cloud Infrastructure" #mustbedoingsomethingright
  2. Public sector exempted from swingeing Microsoft UK price hike • Channel Register j.mp/KMesFQ There's useful.
  3. A poor section on Big Data on the @BBCr4today program. Right Qs but techies struggled to convey ideas. It's not your fridge ordering milk.
  4. Bravo “@IanMmmm: VMware beats revenue and profit estimates, raises outlook reut.rs/JMGziA < 25% year-on-year revenue growth in Q1!”
  5. And then yunano.com times-out to ec2.net. #odd
  6. How ironic. The Atos / UFIDA JV, Yunano denies visitors access. The Great Firewall working the wrong way around. yfrog.com/nxdosslj
  7. Not being anti, but a good read - when will "MSFT realise that AWS has completely pwned their PaaS lunch?" cloudcomments.net/2012/04/12/aws… @simonmunro
  8. Been meaning to say what good articles @IanMmmm wrote on object and block storage as a service. spcto.blogspot.co.uk/2012/03/storag… spcto.blogspot.co.uk/2012/03/storag…
  9. “@garethreynolds: Im excited to announce that I am now the new @VCE_Computing & @CloudEMC Alliances Manager for Cisco UK #cloud” Welcome.
  10. “@turnerkid: Top 5 Private Cloud Computing Trends, 2012 blogs.gartner.com/thomas_bittman…”. It's #3 - management that matters. Also NIST community cloud.
