    Default Livedrive: latest online file storage tool

    Livedrive is the latest online file storage tool
    URL : Online file storage | Livedrive

    Features:
    Unlimited storage
    Ability to create a virtual Drive (L: ) in PC where files can be dragged & Dropped (using client software)
    Also accessable through browser
    Open / restrictive file sharing
    optimised for iPhone and other smart phones
    integrated with Facebook for photos

    with the help of the client software, u can have a local file as well as a web-copy, fully synchronised. This give the benefit that the local copy can be modified wven when thereis no connection and it would synchronise with the web-copy as and when the net connection comes.

    currently in Beta.

    Not every body is that fortunate. I also got FTP at work but it has limited capacity.
    So got to make good with whatever other options are available. As for skydrive, if I understand Microsoft thinking, its going to become paid soon.

    G drive ? thats not a official one i guess. It jus made use of the email space of GMAIL.

    Gdrive has not been updated for some time. Users of Firefox can have similar functionality with GSpace add-on. Both are basically alternate use of GMail A/c with files uploaded as attachments and suffers from the limitations of GMail and do not allow sharing of files online.

    Was it disabled anytime? I thought they introduced it for the free email users only now. And that they are enabling it country wise.
