Web Services are not "Utility Computing"

There is some confusion in the products / spam listed here. It is my understanding that with Cloud Computing it is the actual computing services that are being offered. The company sells you CPU time to run whatever programs you want to run.

Cloud computing is different from web services. With Web Services, the web server is simple responding to a specifically formatted request with a specifically formatted reply. Web Services are standard client-server model, not capable of generic computing. Therefore I am removing links to pages dealing with web services.
