Drool, Britannia? Is the UK Failing the Cloud?
By Roger Strukhoff
Richard Davies wrote: The UK has a good crop of technology pioneers in cloud computing - for example ElasticHosts, FlexiScale, Flexiant, OnApp - and also some strong government initiatives such as G-Cloud. We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.

Luxury Retreats Launches New Home for Villas in Greece - Memorable island vacations now just a click away
Luxury Retreats Launches New Home for Villas in Greece - Memorable island vacations now just a click away

MONTREAL, Dec. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Explore the wonders of the Greek Islands from the comfort of home. The best villa rentals across Mykonos, Santorini and Crete, among others, now have a special place online, so you can focus on finding a private vacation property in your favorite Mediterranean destination without distraction.

The website - http://www.greece-villas.com/ - is being launched and run by Luxury Retreats, the world leader in luxury villa rentals around the globe, with over 1,300 properties in more than 70 regions. Popular islands like Mykonos, as well as lesser-known but up and coming destinations like Zakynthos are featured.

Greece Villas by Luxury Retreats is a joint offering with the American Automobile Association's Home & Villas Program.

"Greece is a wonderful destination that really deserves its own place to shine," said Ben Tuff, Luxury Retreats' Director of Marketing, "so the new website was a natural step for us. It allows people who go to Greece year after year to find exactly what they want in one clear, comprehensive location."

On the site, villas are conveniently divided by location and each has its own page with detailed information. Notes on the bedroom configurations and amenities are laid out and many large photos are offered to give travelers a complete picture of the property.

Villa rentals are a popular accommodation style in the Greek Islands. In these hilly sea specks, there is little room for large hotel development but plenty of historic homes suited for conversion to vacation rentals. Most villas are built in the bright white sugar-cube style, with the individual owner's personal touches marking the inside. Style also varies by island.

"There is an island and a villa for everyone in Greece," agreed Tuff, "whether you're a family looking to get away in a big group or a couple off for a romantic holiday."

Despite the wide price range available, all guests who book through Greece Villas are afforded Luxury Retreats' well-known complimentary concierge services. Car rentals, airport transfers and villa prestocking can all be arranged in advance.
