Free E-Book on Cloud Computing

Light and Electric, Thomas Howe's consulting company, has produced an e-book on cloud computing, featuring essays by 20 "thought leaders."

The idea was to capture thinking about where are in early 2010 and where we might be over the next several years.

Howe says that "in the not-so-long-ago past, the thought leadership for communications belonged to those large service providers, vendors and media outlets, as they were the only entities with the practical authority to comment on or effect changes large enough to matter."

That isn't exclusively the case anymore.

The e-book is free and available for download directly from this site: http://cloudcommbook.squarespace.com/get-the-book/.

In addition, for a nominal fee to cover printing and delivery, it is also available in tree-killing hardcopy edition, and bit-killing Kindle edition.
