Open Cloud Manifesto Published →
Interesting development today around the need for more open standards and portability between cloud computing vendors. It is a great idea in theory, but I see it as difficult in practice to provide real portability for a complete system.

NIN, Jane's Addiction & Street Sweeper EP →
