What is the Cloud

Page 13: Time management in a digital world

The term cloud is a metaphor. The cloud is a network of

servers, and each server has a different function.

For example, Adobe recently moved its creative services to the cloud. You can no longer buy the Creative Suite (Photoshop, InDesign, etc.) in a box set. That's why it's now called the "Adobe Creative Cloud" instead.

Other servers in the network are responsible for storing data. For example, when you take a picture on your smartphone, it is stored on your phone's internal memory drive. However, when you upload the photos to Facebook, Pinterest or Instagram, you are uploading it to the cloud.

The Cloud – How It Works

Methodology - Facebook doesn’t publicize data on

exactly how often a user logs in, though you can bet that they’ve got that information. In lieu of that measurement, this app runs through the timestamps on every post in your feed until it reaches the earliest one, which it uses as the estimated date that you created your profile. Users who are extraordinarily active on the site may get an estimate that is considerably later than the actual date that they joined. Source = time.com
