MacWorld 2009 is coming and there are a couple of strong rumors about some very powerful applications Apple is going to announce in its MacWorld showdown. The strongest of them all – and pretty much probable too – is that Apple will announce its very own Cloud platform and join the elite group of Cloud Computing platforms. Since Clouds is the next big thing to happen to the world of computers and is sure to shape the future of computing for the next 50 years, its pretty much natural for all the big players to throw in there share of the pie.

iCloud – this is the natural name Apple might give to its Cloud platform and there are reports that Apple will also announce iWork movement to the Cloud- something like Google docs or Office Live Workspace. iMovie will also be moving to the Cloud and will be launched as a web app. If that happens then you can upload as well as edit your videos in iMovie placed in the iCloud.

As for the iWork its expected that its applications – Tutorials, keynote, pages, number books – including storage will be going Cloud. That would surely be a blast!

MacWorld would be worth waiting for in anticipation this time. Stay tuned for more on iCloud in the coming days.
