Subject: Ever Wonder Where The "Cloud" is



central - east central Minnesota -

Storage Clouds provided for pic's, data and other high tech "electronic stuff" . . . . . Well, the local news just announced that Becker Mn is in the running for a $600 Million dollar "cloud" could be built. Google likes the idea of  being located next to the states largest electric generating plants. Xcel energy said they will dedicate 2 full wind farms to provide the electrical needs for the Electronic data storage warehouse. (must plan on some battery back up ? for when the wind isn't producing ?)

So, I guess, if it happens - the "cloud" will really be land based just across the Mississippi River . . . . . .
