Windows 8 will be released in 2012 but news is already swirling about the operating system backing up to Microsoft's cloud storage service. According to Download Squad, a job posting, which has since been pulled, states that Microsoft is "working on a Windows Azure-based service and integrating with certain Microsoft online services and Windows 8 client backup. Many of the features we develop have ended up in the Windows Client and Windows Server OSes."

 

 

The news does not specifically mention Windows Azure but it's clear any cloud-backup would be part of the Azure platform.

 

Online storage for the every day user is a growing business. Microsoft is actually launching its own service in 2011 called Windows Live Mesh. It will replace Live Mesh beta.

 

DropBox, Nomadesk and Mozy are just a few of the companies that now offer online backup services.

Personally, I've never used an online backup service.

Nor am I likely to ever do so. It's a privacy/trust issue for me.

"But when in the decades following the Revolution the people seemed to succumb to the deceit and flattery of mushroom demagogues,

who were the popular counterparts of courtiers, the Federalists became bewildered and bitter".

Of such circumstance is the sad state of affairs in this world comprised.
