Social Networks++ & Cloud++ = Social/Pro. CLOUD

Well, it is so long time that I'm using social networks, the 1st one was Orkut four years ago and a year ago I started using Facebook. I don't want compare them, my subject is something else, but as a personal opinion Facebook is really great invention as everybody knows it.
It's about three days that I've felt in a large bunch of these networks and my huge interest to join them and test them.
I tested about 5 of them in just one day. The great things here are the APIs which connect all of them together, even your Yahoo!, Google, AOL and etc. This is why I inserted '++' in the Title.

You know, this is the Cloud. A social cloud which everybody can use in his own method, Social or Professional.

Future of Cloud Computing in 2010

Hi.
I was thinking that how long would Cloud Computing go. What do You think? As I'm surfing webs and reading news about all over the world, mostly America and Europe and also East Asian countries such as Japan or Korea, are working more on C2.
Even in Iran it has became kind of a concern to start Cloud Computing as what I'm trying to know how.
Here I mention some of my predictions and my researches in the Web about Cloud computing in the new year, 2010 .

1. Next Generation Cloud Applications Emerge: 
Well,as I know, SaaS (Software as a Service) is aged about 10 years and the applications were built in the static web tend to have a stilted user experience. But new applications will be more interactive and more user-friendly.Also there maybe be offline Cloud Applications as what Google has mentioned about Chrome, that there will be offline OS after 1st results and releases. New applications will use true and real elasticity which many Saas Apps. still cannot offer.

2. Business Applications Get Social:
It's all ready happening that the major technologies of the year - Cloud Computing and Social Media - are getting the World Business in their hands. I can mention some great companies such as Salesforce and the Oracle CRM which are became more social. Also with the expanded coverage of Facebook,Twitter,Digg and etc. advertising and commercials are getting more social and in touch.

3. More Standards for Cloud Computing:
Two days ago I read about it in InfoWorld that Vint Cerf one of the desigers of TCP/IP protocols, emphasize on the need of some standards for Data Portability in the Cloud. As he said, for example in transfering data form Cloud A to Cloud B, there should be some standards that specify the format of Data and how the transfer should be processed.

4. What do you think ? :D
