Working in the cloud – why I love Dropbox
I have been playing with lots of products to see which product is easy to use, easy to access and efficient. Dropbox has won my heart. Oops, I skipped a beat!
Why?
Dropbox is a great way to experience a virtual office or “Cloud Computing.” Visit www.dropbox.com and download the software onto your computer. They give you a free 2 gb account to play with. Once the software is installed an icon appears on your taskbar. You can drag files onto the icon and upload them automatically to your online Dropbox account.
If you have more than one computer registered, or if you are sharing files with someone else, Dropbox allows you to sync your files online and across your computers automatically.
a) Sync files of any size or type.
b) Sync Windows, Mac and Linux computers.
c) Automatically syncs when new files or changes are detected.
d) You can view your files from a web browser and now there are free apps for your Iphone, Ipad or Android.
