>> As for the quiet list, its probably because people are busy working I suppose a lot of the other lists are driven by production and development problems, whereas not many people have line of business apps in Azure yet!
>> Also, I did wonder if a special interest list like this can be justified? I don't think it hurts. Any community gathering, whether a mailing list or a user group, takes time to build. Anyway, while Codify are happy to host it, I'm happy to use it for diversionary topics like this. >> not just hosted on a single machine, it starts up instances as needed So this kinda falls into utility/cloud computing for me. So my next question is: if I have my email hosted at my hosting company (that hosts my domain) and I access it via the web, is this software as a service? Does this fall into 'the cloud'?

Good question. The whole Internet is the cloud, technically but I think it specifically (for me anyway) is services that run on a network of servers. ie clustering, etc. I'm assuming when you put your stuff up on Azure your application is not just hosted on a single machine, it starts up instances as needed. As for the quiet list, its probably because people are busy working. Also, I did wonder if a special interest list like this can be justified?
