Presenting Cloud Desires and Realities Webcast

Tomorrow I am giving a free web-cast on my recent work on cloud computing: 

http://www.brighttalk.com/webcast/288/53101

I hope to see you there!

Best wishes

Will. 

ABSTRACT:Cloud computing has become central to current discussions about corporate information technology. To assess the impact and potential that cloud may have on your enterprise it is important to evaluate the claims made critically review these against you’re organisations’ reality. Drawing on extensive research this talk will walk through my “cloud desires framework” (recently published in the prestigious Journal of Information Technology).  The framework is structured around a series of technological and service ‘desires’, i.e. characteristics of cloud that are important for cloud users.
