He's an Abe

Cloudware — used as early as 2007 to refer to things like Google Maps, normal people will start saying it this year to refer to just about everything.

"AWS It" — putting something on AWS’s S3, EC2 or Turk instead of going the dirt computing route.

Web 11.0 — someone will surely co-opt this meaningless string of syllables in a vain attempt to lend it real significance.  Won’t be dull enough to be widely used until mid 2010.  But seriously: I had to go all that way to Web 11.0 to find one that wasn’t  in some degree of use.  Check this out: formal definitions for Web 1.0 through Web 8.0.

"He’s an Abe"* — that guy — you know the one — who keeps arguing that you need to keep data on a server in house and that you can’t really deal with the downtime imposed by an external service provider’s schedule maintenance window.**

Pie — OK, that’s not PaaS / SaaS or otherwise buzzworthy.  I just like pie.   Any you’d like to contribute? Feel free in comments.

* Estimated time until we get a cease and desist or whatever on the image above? 9 minutes.  Special thanks to Josh Birk for  finding the image.

** Cause you know in house servers never go down.
