This morning, I traded top cloud computing stories for January with David Linthicum and Bill Russell on the Cloud Computing Podcast.  We had one common story, giant hint on the left.  Check out our podcast.

End of Cloud Watch Quiescence

If the word wasn’t outlawed, I’d give myself a “fail” for Cloud Watch blogging in the second half of 2010.  It wasn’t intentional. Or lack of interest.  And definitely not lack of material  more >>

Apparently, our Top Cloud Computing Stories for May podcast was well-received, because David Linthicum invited me back to swap top stories for June.  Check out our podcast.  Then, consider this: What will be the ‘Tang’ of cloud computing?

Last week, Dave Linthicum invited me back to his podcast to discuss top cloud computing stories for May.  There were no set rules on what constituted “top”.  We each picked 3 stories, which we didn’t reveal to each other beforehand. 

As for the results, I will say that we had one story in common, two mainstream stories (one each) and two wildcards (one each).  The format was fun, so we’ll do another at the end of June.

To listen to the podcast (16 minutes or so), go here.

Quickly discovering I wasn’t the only enterprise architect, services architecture type interested in cloud computing, I invited David Linthicum, SOA expert, enterprise architecture advocate, blogger, founder of Blue Mountain Labs, and all around nice guy, to speak at the March SOA Consortium meeting on the Intersections of SOA and Cloud Computing. 

The podcast of Dave’s talk is now available from the SOA Consortium.  What follows is the “blurb” on the podcast that I posted at SOA Consortium Insights.  If like me, you are getting intentional in your cloud watching, I highly recommend this podcast.

“Linthicum opened by sharing the distinctions and connections between SOA and cloud computing. SOA is something you do, an architectural pattern. Cloud computing is an architectural option.
