Anyone using online storage?

4 replies
There are quite a few services out there. I believe currently the largest is Microsoft's SkyDrive
SkyDrive - Windows Live
I haven't gotten around to setting anything up yet, but I would like to do this. Anyone tried any of these services yet?

    Hi dvduval,

    Currently I use Dropbox (getdropbox.com) and it is perfect for me.
    Yes, they offer only 2 GB of free storage, but the interface is fast and very user friendly.

    I love this app.

    I've actually always wondered what benefits can be had from storing documents online. On top of that I think I would feel somewhat uncomfortable with storing my files on a remote computer. I guess such services have their uses though as otherwise they wouldn't exist. Can someone enlighten me about how best to put online storage to use?

    Amazon S3- using all the time. Just upload client's stuff there and give them download link. Cost is something like $0.15 per gigabyte so it's really cheap

      You can access with a regular FTP program?

      It is okay to contact me! I have been developing software since 1999, creating many popular products like phpLD.
