William M. Bulkeley, of the Wall Street Journal, just published an interesting quiz “How Well Do You Know… the Cloud?“. It apears that the good Mr. Bulkeley has a good grasp of cloud computing in its current stage of evolution. Although it appears that this article is not based upon a strict framework or taxonomy, it serves a really useful service. That is, introducing the concepts of cloud computing to the audience of the Wall Street Journal.

I suspect that many business decision makers would learn useful tidbits about this approach to computing by reading the article.
