I am very pleased to announce that I have just updated my Grid, Distributed and Cloud Computing Resources Primer. This primer is now 32 pages and a .pdf document (250KB) and freely available from the above URL. The primer gives an excellent overview of Cloud Computing along with a comprehensive listing of cloud, grid and distributed computing resources! It will be permanently archived in my White Papers site. [Updated January 10, 2013]
