Meat Clouds and Serverhuggers

About a week ago, I posted my roster of The 2008 Cloud Computing All-Stars (I'll be updating this shortly with new players and possibly a poll). Botchagalupe followed it up this week with his inaugural 2008 Cloudies Awards. My favorite category is his Best New Cloudy Terms (of which his top two for 2008 are Meat Cloud and Serverhuggers). Watch for Appistry (Disclosure: They are a client) to make a run at next year's Cloudies based on what they are doing to help enterprises cloud-enable their applications.
