Bit disappointed about the jab at Chrome.

That omission is odd, considering it does work in Chrome.
As for iDisk: although I know as little as anyone, I've been under the impression that drag-and-drop storage will be returning. To possibly support this, there is a currently unusable server in the Finder Network of iCloud users, coming up as something like '[numbers].bt.mm.icloud'. |

I like these cute new pages/pictures! They are kind of old school Apple, where things were a little fun as well as functional.
Although on the other hand i rapidly need to find a new host for my iWeb, which is disappointing as it seems iCloud won't continue that on once i change over. |

I'm now a fan of a hosting company in particular, but I would recommend you find one with a data center close to where most of your traffic is going to be from. I see it all the time now where someone in the UK is upset that page loads are slow with a datacenter in the East Coast of the US.

For those on the US East Coast, I'be been with pair.com for well over a decade now. They've grown tremendously. But they're still competitive enough that I haven't bothered to go somewhere else.
With that said, I like nikstar101's consideration of a "plain simple Wordpress setup." In the day and age of Facebook and Google+, a vanity domain is just too much work. I've been hand-coding HTML for 15+ years, and I really don't have the time and interest anymore. Sooner or later, my personal domain will just redirect to my FB and LinkedIn pages. I mean, really? Wouldn't we all be better off without "look-at-me-i-had-bad-coffee-for-breakfast-and-then-went-on-the-bus.com"? Kind of like the late blowthedotoutyourass.com. RIP. I've been waiting for a true sub-PowerBook for more than 10 years. The 11-inch MacBook Air finally delivers on all counts! It beats the hell out of both my PowerBook 2400c and my 12-inch PowerBook G4 -- no contest whatsoever. |

PS: And with their server farms spreading all over the world, Facebook, Google+, Wordpress, and soon iCloud will address turtle's recommendation of having a host that is geographically close to your visitors.

Well good news, of sorts, it seems that we will be able to keep our iWeb sites until 30th June 2012 even if you do change your MobileMe account to an iCloud one. I am not sure if I was the only one who thought that they would go as soon as you migrated to iCloud but this has cleared it up (for the thickos like me ).
http://www.apple.com/mobileme/transition.html Also it looks like existing MobileMe users will get an extra 20GBs free for a year. I think it would have been nice for a bit more free stuff after god knows how many years to paying for MobileMe, but then again its better than nothing and more than i expected. http://www.macrumors.com/2011/08/06/...-for-1st-year/ |

I can't remember if I've asked this already, but when (or do) we get to check and see if certain e-mail addresses are available for this?
For that matter, what will the e-mail suffixes be? @me.com? Or @cloud.com? As a current MobileMe user, I'm all set. Nothing will change. But my friend and a few others (my sister, uncle, Mom, etc.) are either on Hotmail or Comcast POP and I'd like to try and get them to this new thing with the IMAP mail, etc. Ideally they could all retain their current usernames and so it's not a huge adjustment for them (or others they know to simply change the last part of their e-mail address in their address books). I'd go and reserve about 3-4 iCloud e-mails today if I could... |

It will be @me.com.
The only way to see if they're available is to attempt to sign up for a new account, though you can't do that unless you've been given access to do so (Developer beta, etc). |

Is iCloud going to include re-downloads of purchased movies sometime in the future too?

Question re: iCloud. I use iWeb and 'MobileMe' for hosting. I've been looking for answers to this all over the web only to find none.
If I turn on my iCloud account, do I lose my MobileMe account? I know MobileMe is scheduled to be turned off in June 2012, but I don't want to lose my website in the meantime until I find new hosting somewhere. Make sense? Can anyone help me with this endeavor? I want to experience the new iCloud without sacrificing my website until I get new hosting somewhere. |

As far as I can tell you cannot use both services.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there a free iCloud "version" for simple things like calendar and contacts, or am I making things up again in my head?

All of iCloud is free except for iTunes Match. So Mail, Calendar, Contacts, Photo Stream, cloud sync are all free. If you want Apple to store your non-iTunes purchased music in the cloud, via iTunes Match, then you can pay $24.99 per year for that service.

My worry with iCloud is what it will do to older computers with respect to syncing. My hackintosh is probably not going to make the leap to Lion and I don't want to lose the ability to sync to it. Will there be an iCloud release for Snow Leopard?

Don't know if this has been posted inhere or not yet, but iCloud is open for all now.
I've not been able to get it configured to my Mac yet though it says I need Lion. I'm guessing there's a software update in the near future to address this. Obviously my iPad is waiting on iOS 5. There is a link to the setup page, but the link is broken as of right now.
