<p>Cloud computing is becoming inevitable - the freedom of being able to access your "stuff" from any internet-connected PC is a gigantic convenience, and one that people will gravitate towards more and more. Google did it, and now Valve is doing it. Who next?</p>

At first, then they're slowly integrating the system into everything else

I'm very excited for this, but how will Valve do it? After all these years, they still maintain a very small employee base at the company. They've branched out so big, they've got to expand eventually...
