Preeti,Please see the MakeUseOf article, How Does Cloud Computing Work? [Technology Explained] and  HowStuffWorks - Cloud Computing . Explaining how cloud computing works can get in-depth, these two articles should sum up the majority of your questions. However, if you have any remaining questions, please feel free to ask!- Jeff

Hello, you could fill pages trying to explain this.  Best option for you is to read the following:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_computinghttp://computer.howstuffworks.com/cloud-computing/cloud-computing.htmWhat it boils down to is that with cloud computing anything like software/apps you need to accomplish something are already in the cloud for you to use,  you only need a browser to use it.  You do not need to install any software/applications in your computer view/use it.   For example, chances are you already have done some cloud computing if you have accessed any webmail account such as yahoo, msn, gmail, etc.
