White House takes a big step into the cloud with Apps.gov
“The Cloud” may not mean what you think it means , but the White House is hitching a ride on this fluffy bandwagon with Apps.gov . The site is essentially a White House-sanctioned App Store of social media services approved for government agencies, made possible largely because of some unique TOS amendments. Run by the US General Services Administration (GSA), Apps.gov arranges quite a few social media services under categories like Business, Productivity, Social Media, and Cloud IT, with the latter listing services like storage, Web hosting, and virtualization as “coming soon.” Almost every commercial and free service that you have (and have not) heard of is here, ranging from Facebook, Scribd, Vimeo, and Google Apps.
