Get Dropbox January 30th, 2009 by Nick
As you can see from Kim’s previous post I’m somewhat of a nerd. I’m pretty in to technology, computers, and finding things on the internet that make life easier or are just plain cool. So you may see posts from time to time of cool things that I (or Taylor, my partner in crime) have found that I feel like sharing with all of you. Today it is Dropbox. With Dropbox you can store all of your important documents (2 GB free storage) up in the cloud and sync them between all your computers via lightweight clients for Windows and Mac OS X. When I drop something into my dropbox on one of my computers, say my Macbook, it automatically uploads to the web, where I can access it through Dropbox’s web interface. What makes it even better is that it then instantaneously copies the files into my dropbox on my PC. Its works seamlessly and is pretty freaking cool. If you aren’t understanding me watch this video and you’ll get the idea.
Dropbox is perfect for sharing files with other people. You can set up share folders and specify who you want to access your files. For example, when Goot drops a picture into our shared folder it automatically downloads into my dropbox. Pretty cool. Give it a try. It’s free and setup only takes a minute.
