Apple iCloud: Apple’s new revealation at WWDC
Jun 7th
Apple revealed the iCloud for iPhones, iPads and ipods on Monday at the Worldwide Developers Conference. Apple CEO Steve Jobs called iCloud as their “next big insight.”
The iCloud is Apple’s new wireless data sync service that syncs contacts, calendars, photos, videos and mail across devices.
“iCloud stores your content in the cloud and wirelessly pushes it to all your devices,” says Mr. Steve Jobs.
Previously, users had to copy music files onto their devices.
Jobs described the process, “If I acquire a song, I buy it right on my iPhone, I want to get that to my other devices. I pick up my iPad and it doesn’t have that song on it. So I have to sync my iPhone to my Mac, then I have to sync my other devices to the Mac to get that song.”
“Keeping these devices in sync is driving us crazy,” he said to laughter on Monday.
