Apple (AAPL) CEO Steve Jobs today ushered his company -- and, by extension, the global computing industry -- into the "cloud" era.
"We are going to move the digital hub, the center of your digital life, into the cloud," Jobs said.
The new iCloud service replaces Apple's MobileMe document-sharing offering, which cost $99 a year. The new iCloud service is free, Jobs said.
With iCloud, content such as music and documents is stored on large servers instead of on personal hard drives -- and is accessible from anywhere through the Internet.
The new iCloud service is Apple's seal of approval of what many experts believe is the next major iteration of the digital world.
