51% of people think stormy weather "affects" Cloud Computing

Are you keeping your files "up there in the cloud"? If so, stormy weather might affect them, or at least that's what 51% of surveyed Americans believe.

"Cloud computing" is a term to describe a network of servers (computers) that work together to allow centralized data storage and online access to computer services or resources.

However, the 2012 survey conducted by Wakefield Research among over 1,000 American adults found that most of them remain "foggy" about what the cloud really is and how it works.

Another 95% don't think they'll ever use cloud computing, even though they're already doing a lot in the cloud without checking the weather report.

  1. I think it's a hoot that there's that kind of misunderstanding. I know a lot of people who actually use a webmail account, and don't realize that that is technically "in the cloud".
