GDrive is coming

Posted by admin on January 20, 2009

The possibility to store files on line like music, images or documents is already a fact as we dispose from services like Flickr, Picassa, Gmail, Google Docs etc…

But what if we could upload the whole computer on line and have access to it from any where on the world?

That´s the idea of Google with Gdrive, which is going to offer a massive Storage to upload all our files on line, similar services to this are Microsoft´s Skydrive that disposes 25Gb storage but with a maximum of 50MB / File other services like ” Live Mesh ” offer more services but less space.

Google offers for free 5Gb on Gmail and 1GB on Picasa Web Albums images, if you are interested in purchasing extra storage you ´ll find the information here.

You can already download GMail Drive 1.0.13 which creates a virtual file system on your computer to storage files into your GMail account.
Available to download on Fileforum.

When you launch the application you will find going on the data of your computer a GMail Drive symbol as if you connected an extern storage, double click on it and you will be asked to sign in on your gmail account.

As it is a local application it works the same way as moving files from one folder to another, pretty simple. Available are 7Gb space storage.

Test it!

More information about File storage and usable applications you can find under my Partner Blog Roguedeals - Better Ways to Use Files.

EMail - Alias

Posted by admin on January 9, 2009

As surfing around websites on the Internet is not always secure, there are times we get asked for our email address and we are not pretty sure to give it away or not.

To avoid this doubts, there is a web page that offers you an alias getting a temporally address. The name of the site is tempinbox and it works perfectly as I have tried it myself, just write a name accept the conditions and there you go.
