The cloud is actually space on the internet that you can store your data and be available from multiple locations. So it's like a hard drive.. on the internet. You can save your information to that 'cloud' space and then access it from wherever, whenever you need it. Usually this works through a username or password.

It's an easy way to not take up your computers hard drive space while being able to access that data anyways.
