Seems a distinction without a difference. Or at very list the splitting of very fine hairs. How is it your website is not in the cloud but gmail is? What is the difference? I can download an app that basically allows me to FTP files to my gmail account...when I run this app does that mean it is no longer in the cloud?
I'd say being in the cloud is anything you don't have physical access to. If you can't go and get that hard drive...it's the cloud regardless of if you can FTP to it or not.
