we have written about cloud computing statistics and cloud computing projections before – we spotted this statistic today:

“The US government is looking for $2.5 billion worth of cloud services over five years, beginning with e-mail and moving on to office automation and records management, then possibly geospatial and financial services. The feds may share what they buy with state and local governments. The blanket purchase order would be made under the General Services Administration’s SmartBuy program. ”
