Walt Mossberg – For iPad and Mobile Devices, a “Port” out of the Norm
On Friday, a massive outage occurred at Amazon Web Services that generated a wave of negativity and criticism in the blogosphere. Not long ago, Rackspace, one of the world’s largest hosting companies, experienced an outage that resulted in a similar reaction. When the backbone collapses, so do our favorite services. This makes us mad. It makes us say things like: Well, maybe we shouldn’t be using the cloud.
This is a section of the AllThingsD Web site featuring posts that have been curated from around the Web: pieces we’ve read, discussions we’ve followed, stuff we like. Five posts are included here each weekday, but only the headline and the first two sentences. We link to the original site for the rest. The section is explicitly labeled, so it’s clear that content comes “from other Web sites.”
We also solicit original full-length posts and accept some unsolicited submissions. Voices is edited by Beth Callaghan.
