ZDNet published a great article about hosting your business in the cloud.  There are some trade-offs most small businesses may not be aware of if they make the transition to the cloud alone.  When considering a move to the cloud, there will be some things that work better, some that will work less-than-stellar, and others that will not work at all.  It is important to have an expert like Nine Virtual Technologies discuss the trade-offs with you, and set expectations appropriately.
