Tokyo 2.0: Cloud Computing at Super Deluxe (Nishi-Azabu, Tokyo, Japan, 07/13/2009)
This is a presentation I gave on cloud computing entitled, "Cloud Computing": What It Is, What It Isn't, Why It Matters" for Tokyo 2.0 which was held at Super Deluxe in Nishi-Azabu. We had a great turnout for the event with over 200 people in attendance (you can watch the video below or see the full presentation PDF below).
It was almost 5 years ago yet a number of the main themes and issues I addressed have come to pass.

Some Feedback From Tokyo 2.0 Participants
James,
I really enjoyed your presentation. I didn't understand cloud computing, but you explained it so clearly, now I do. Thanks! Hello James, I wasn't sure what to expect tonight, if it was going to be a full geek talk or only advertising fluff. You surprised me and did a great job in covering the entire spectrum in such a short time. I actually learned something lol. |
Hey,
I'm a techie/dev but always have a hard time explaining this to non-techies but you explained it very well and clearly. I'll borrow a few of your examples next time I try to explain what I do. ;) Hi James, I liked your talk, especially how you took it beyond just technical platforms or tech talk and also covered business models, social and legal issues. I'm glad I came tonight. |
