Numerous reports citing a WSJ newsflash indicate there will be more iCloud apps from Apple in the future, if the company manages to snag the necessary people with know-how in Web-based software.

It has been revealed that Cupertino is recruiting senior-level executives with backgrounds in Web-based software, and that the company has already talked to one prominent Internet entrepreneur earlier this year.

Moreover, the Mac maker is considering building new applications that leverage the Web. The new web-apps will be designed to reduce dependency on devices, one of the people briefed on the matter said.

There are no specific positions set for the Web team just yet, and Apple wants talented people that can immediately begin work as directors and even higher positions than that, including senior executives.
