	OpenP2P.com: Hailstorm: Open Web Services Controlled by Microsoft
		Rather than subject Hailstorm to some sort of P2P litmus test, it is more illuminating to examine where it embraces the centralization of the client-server model and where it departs by decentralizing functions to devices at the network's edge.
		HailStorm, which launched in March with a public announcement and a white paper, is Microsoft's bid to put some meat on the bones of its.NET initiative.
		HailStorm is Microsoft's most serious attempt to date to move from competing on unit sales to selling software as a service, and the announced intention to allow any sort of client to access HailStorm represents a remarkable decentralization for Microsoft.

		The HailStorm services are oriented around the individual and allow developers, with the user's consent, to access for example an individual's calendar, contact information or documents, from any application, device or service connected to the Internet.
		HailStorm adheres to an open-access model in which all interactions are conducted via XML-based SOAP protocols.
		HailStorm is designed to combine the different islands and move the data behind the scenes so users don't have to move it themselves, thereby providing Microsoft's latest mantra of anytime, anywhere access to data from any device, according to Gates.

	Markl's Thoughts: Don Box and HailStorm
		HailStorm had the notion of an type which defined a set of base properties associated with an address.
		In HailStorm, the model was based on an identity space where an identity could represent a person, an organization, a group, etc. Given an identity, you could determine where to send messages to interact what information related to that identity.
		Architecturally, HailStorm provided a level playing field where service providers could compete for a customer's business, and where because of all the facets listed above, a customer had complete freedom to move from provider to provider, with no impact on applications running on her behalf.

	Duck and cover - here comes a Hailstorm
		Hailstorm services will provide users control of their technology and the privacy of their personal information, and allow unprecedented collaboration between users' devices, software and personal data.
		All HailStorm services are XML Web services, which permits us to wave the banner of "open industry standards" even as we restrict key portions of the technology and require everyone to come to us, to bargain with us, to compromise for our benefit.
		Bob Muglia said that "(Hailstorm) starts with the fundamental assumption that the user owns and controls their personal information and is empowered to decide who gets to decide with whom they share any of their information and under what terms." Next, it assumes that every online transaction provides a revenue opportunity for Microsoft.

		I interpreted it metaphorically to mean that something apparently stable would disintegrate into its elements and re–form; that something small (the lake) would disperse and join something larger, more oceanic.
		If the hailstorm was a fulfillment of the reading, it was a lot more literal than I expected!

	MS pulls the plugs on Hailstorm, pending rethink \| The Register
		Hailstorm, one of the cornerstones of Microsoft's.NET "bet the company" strategy, is no more - at least in the most ambitious of its advertised forms.
		As initially envisaged.NET was about Microsoft producing the systems that would allow delivery of services across to Internet to individuals, and Hailstorm, subsequently rechristened.NET My Services, was intended to allow consumers to access a range of services based on their own particular identity, anytime anywhere.
		That translates, we think, as 'Amex et al told us to take a hike, so now we're going to have think of a new strategy." Compare and contrast, if you will, with what Steve Ballmer had to say in an Infoworld interview in the middle of last year: "HailStorm, as announced, is very end-user focused.

	Exploiting Hailstorm
		In a nutshell, Hailstorm is a storage system for the personal information of its users.
		However, because Microsoft is slowly but surely extending its control over the Windows desktop, Hailstorm, coupled with their Passport service could mean a fairly large breach of a Windows user's personal security.
		With Hailstorm, Passport, and.NET neatly tying all the MS user's information into one controlled location you've got to wonder what users are thinking.
