Google Drive. Keep everything. Share anything.
The google Drive is here, but hey, what is google drive?
Ever heard of the famous dropbox? Which makes you a folder that sync to the net and access it anywhere you want.
Google Drive is exactly much same as it.
It is yet another cloud storage service dedicated by Google Inc.
Now they made their own products.
Lets take a look what is featured inside,
Google Drive lets you access your files from anywhere, Pc, Android Device and even Apple Device.
Cloud editing your document file together with your cooperate teammates.
5GB Free for storage (Lets not mention the paid service)
And at last, one must look at their introduction video of Google Drive by Google~
Now, did that impressed you?
No for me. A little bad news to you guys, it doesn't support Linux OS, at least for now.
In Blackberry neither.
There's already plenty of cloud service offering decent free storage to us and now google gets another leg in.
Let me show you difference between some of the major cloud storage in a table.
