Cloud computing: renting computational time over the internet. It's cheap and highly scalable. This is how businesses will use computers in the future. Many companies are already doing it.
Computational biologists often need large amounts of computer power. Cloud computing is great for scientific computing, including computational biology.
Below are some presentations I've made on cloud computing. (The presentations are several megabytes each.)
