This year’s World Cup has seen some of the latest goals and highest scoring games in the history of the cup. There have already been more goals in this World Cup than in 2010 and we haven't even reached the semi finals yet. This all creates some great drama, but the truly amazing thing is how many people have been able to watch and interact with all of this excitement.

Today's music scene is drastically different than what it was 10 years ago. The entire industry has gone through a revolution ever since Napster came on the scene and completely changed the way we access music.

This industry change is showing no signs of slowing down either, with services such as iTunes and Spotify continuing to innovate the way we consume and find music

Here is an awesome infographic showing just how the music industry has changed over the past 10 years.

The question on everyone’s mind is, “Is the Cloud Secure?” Well, let’s think about that for a minute, because it is an important question. You are taking your critical business data, important financial information and key secret documents that are the foundation of your company and putting them on the Internet.

I’ve got to tip my hat to the men and women over at Intel; they really understand your needs and the needs of others like you.

Oh the floppy disk, what great memories, not that they could held many of them. At least they were portable and compa - oh wait they were large and cumbersome? What about reliable? No. Maybe they were fast? Ah, I see they had terrible data transfer rates.

It’s 2014. The Year of the Cloud. Some of us still aren't sure if the Cloud is right for us. But how do I know when it’s the right time for me? (By the way, we show you exactly what you need to know about the cloud to help you with this decision in our free cloud report here, shameless plug over).

I see it everywhere, it’s all around me.

The cloud offers several great advantages: accessibility, collaboration, storage and backup are just a few. Now many of us already know this, the amazing thing is what different industries are accomplishing with these capabilities. Each industry, be it legal, healthcare or financial have all been finding ways to retrofit these capabilities to their specific needs.

There's an old joke that goes: How do you eat an elephant? Well, one bite at a time of course! This approach can also apply to companies considering moving from in-house IT to the cloud in support of their business. It can be a daunting and drawn out process dealing with the integration, security and data privacy concerns that come with moving fully into the cloud.

It was a great Father’s Day this year. The temperature was perfect and there wasn’t a cloud in the sky. However, no matter the weather or what we did to celebrate it seemed the Cloud was following us around everywhere we went. Let’s take a look at how the Cloud changed even my Father’s Day:

First on the agenda was a Father’s Day classic that technology could never change; Breakfast in bed.

Not all clouds and computing service delivery products are the same. What are the different types of cloud computing, and what options do you have available to you as the consumer? A daunting question indeed. There is a lot of marketing jargon that really takes some effort just to understand.
