Apple's Steve Jobs extended his company's technology in a new direction today by announcing iCloud, a service that means music, photos, and documents saved onto an Apple device will soon appear almost instantly on any other Apple product that a person owns.

"Apple's iCloud works in the background to keep music, photos, and documents in sync across all Apple devices, mobile or otherwise," said Jobs. He announced the new service at the annual WWDC conference, an event aimed at developers who create software for Apple products.

Lion is to be released next month and iOS in the fall.
