What cloud computing really means?

Frankly, no one has the answer yet. Several years passed, everyone is claiming they are doing "cloud" project. But what exactly is it? This article gave some actual examples, http://www.infoworld.com/d/cloud-computing/what-cloud-computing-really-means-031?page=0,0.

I think whoever can provide the easiest-to-use and most-secure cloud would be the winner. But again, what does the secure? easiest-to-use mean?
