A Cloud of One's Own
Cloud technologies have transformed startup and business IT, but the benefits haven't filtered down to our personal use. What if I could mapreduce my home energy use, secure my accounts with the hundreds of sites that have my information, or plot my real life social graph and intelligently watch for unexpected events? In this group conversation we'll discuss some promising personal cloud technologies, explore some ideas for what the personal cloud could look like, and figure out what needs to be done to get from here to there.
