I bet the people who were the previous owners of that domain are patting themselves on the back for picking that domain a few years ago. lol

must of took a genius to come up with the name iCloud ^.^ too bad windows already had their own going back during the release of windows 7.

Apple filed a patent for the use of the letter 'i" as a prefix, followed by a patent for the word "cloud".

iCloud where your private data is securely viewed by yourself, and Steve Job's lackey of the month.

the best place to store your confidential data is in Wikileaks

Has anyone ever bought anything from a spammer on a forum?
Note to spammers: Go back to the street corner, no one is going to trust you when you gatecrash a forum.

Another 'i' product from Apple. nuff said. Next.....

On a more different note, it seems that the spammers are only posting articles on tomsguide.

I can see an image of "Neuschwanstein" castle rising out of a fog bank (a castle in the cloud) as the icon and on most of the advertising for iCloud.

Very Disney-like.

There certainly are some parallels between iSteve and Ludwig II of Bavaria (Neuschwanstein's builder) too.. Their insanity, their delusions of grandeur and irrational and their distorted dream world for example.

I think the name is awful to be quite honest. If I am not mistaken the "i" stands for interactive.
So we have "interactive cloud" Not very catchy. Of course this wouldn't be the worst naming case of such that would go to iAds "interactive Ads" perhaps not a bad idea for a form of advertising.... except they aren't interactive so the name is highly inaccurate.

"Delusions" of grandeur? Personally, I think forging the the second most valuable company in the world from nothing sounds pretty grand. But, I admire your ability to jump on to an uninformed bandwagon. Go ahead and feel good about yourself and superior for that one. I won't point out how deluded you are.

Apple can't claim that they invented this one. Microsoft, Google and Amazon have all been there before them.

As a CEO he performed his job tremendously well, But apple isn't the second most valuable company in the world.

Note to spammers: http://theoatmeal.com/comics/sell_generation
The spam does not even figure there, because it goes way under the loosing interest, goes to the hate part, including the brand spammed if that reaches to attention. Not that spammers care, or the fake brand producers care.
