2010 - 1st Fizz in the SSD

2010 - 1st Fizz in the
SSD Bubble.
I think
SSD analysts will
look back on 2010 as - "Year 1 of the SSD Market Bubble." Greed
will play as big a part as technology in shaping the
SSD year ahead. Wonder

New Image for Cloud Storage
Editor:- January 13, 2010
- a new article on
PCWorld.com
discusses on-low cost and no-cost cloud storage offerings from Google.
The
author David Coursey (and his commenting readers) make some interesting
comparisons with Microsoft 's SkyDrive.
Personally
I loathe the term "Cloud Storage". But I have to admit we're stuck
with it. So today I changed the graphic on the
online backup and storage
page.
The old one - with the tag about "Spellerbyte was
cooking up a new business plan which involved online web backup" - was
appropriate when it was first published 10 years ago - but no longer fits this
market's image today. I resisted the temptation to use an image compatible with
the business metaphor of "sad losers" or "big black hole for
VC investors."
CES SSDs Mostly Preannounced Before
Editor:- January
8, 2010 - storage related news coming out of CES was a disappointment to me - because
nearly all the major news about SSD
products had already been preannounced (and covered on these pages) in the
months leading
up to the show.
If it's not new - and we've already talked about it -
it's not news. That's why editorial arising from this event has been sparser
than expected. SSD marketers in many companies have got into the habit of
preannouncing products anything upto a year ahead - as part of the SSD Bubble.
In that way they hope to get multiple shots at web visibility. It
doesn't work that way
here on StorageSearch.com. My purpose is to save you time - not to waste it. |
