The term "cloud" is appearing everywhere recently. It is an interesting phenomenon, since hosted computing, remote computing and shared computing have been around for as long as I have been in technology (don't ask!).
So as we all rush to brand our services as cloud services, i became interested in how many different types of cloud metaphors have been used. I tripped across a blog by Lenny Rachitsky where he identified the 7 most used cloud metaphors. He identified weather patterns such as "partly cloudy", "dark lining", "dark side", "bursting", "rain", "clearing the air", and the always optimistic "Silver Lining".
Have a look and enjoy it.
