Didnt have a clue what the Dewey System was, so googled it and then Wiki - "This highly organized system categorizes books on library shelves in an efficient, specific and repeatable order that makes it easy to find any book and return it to its proper place on the library shelves. The system is used in 200,000 libraries in at least 135 countries" - Perhaps because its not a book?

The term has been used to refer to a variety of related phenomena; what they all have in common is that cloud computing involves computing over the Internet. Hence this topic has been accommodated in an expansion under 004.678 Internet: 004.6782 Cloud computing..."

"Interdisciplinary works on the World Wide Web have been relocated from 004.678 Internet (where interdisciplinary works on the Internet remain) to the recently expanded 025.042 World Wide Web. The Manual note referenced above goes on to say that 025.042 is to be used for works “that emphasize search and retrieval” on the web, plus “works that describe information resources available on the Internet or WWW, or on how to find information there.” "
