Tip of the Iceberg

I’m sure you will already know about DropBox, but in case you have been
a) hiding under a rock
b) without internet access
c) a parent of very small children
or some other tragic circumstance has prevented you from discovering its brilliance, here are the details just in case:

DropBox is a wonderful service which allows you to store files in the ‘cloud’ and sync them across multiple computers and devices automatically.

Some of its free features include:

• 2GB storage
• Public, Private and Shared folders
• Restore previous versions of your files
• Download files for offline viewing
• Mobile access
• Export files to other applications

For the paid service, you get up to 100GB of storage- it’s pretty amazing really!

Some of the ways I have used DropBox include:

• Storing copies of my family’s passport details, so when trying to book flights from different computers, all the information is handy.
• Sharing photos from events & conferences.
• Working on common files for workshops.
• Safeguarding important documents I cannot afford to lose.

So if you haven’t signed up for a DropBox account, you should do so – today!
