My files, where I need them
For the last year or so I’ve had a little application called Dropbox installed on my main laptop. I hadn’t used it much for no reason other than I just never really got to it. For those of you that aren’t familiar with Dropbox, here’s the description from their website
“Dropbox is software that syncs your files online and across your computers. Put your files into your Dropbox on one computer, and they’ll be instantly available on any of your other computers that you’ve installed Dropbox on (Windows, Mac, and Linux too!) Because a copy of your files are stored on Dropbox’s secure servers, you can also access them from any computer or mobile device using the Dropbox website.”
On any given day I use up to four different computers for various purposes and it’s nice to have my commonly used files (mostly pictures and a few documents) on any of those computers. While there are many cloud services that will let me access files online, this one actually copies them to the server as a backup and syncs them to all my computers. Bottom line, I think it’s fabulous.
