Microsofts's Skydrive storage launches
If you need a "little" more online storage for pictures, music, documents and videos, Microsoft's online Live storage solution has been re-released, and is available in beta with a few more updates. Formally called Windows Live Folders, Windows Live Skydrive provides users with a fresh design and new features on the 500 MB online storage solution. There are new graphics, image thumbnails, the ability to drag and drop and embed files into social networks, blogs and websites.
Given that Skydrive is the new name of the service, we only hope that combined with the beta stamp are the only factors holding the storage capacity back for this new Live service.

I think that if Microsoft could combine this service with their FolderSync service and give it the 2GB of storage of the new Live Mail service, it would be a sweet combination.

Goodbye to www.filebackup.net
They saved my scrawny neck a couple of times, but this is cheaper. Is it possible to get more storage as I need about 15GB or so? Multiple accounts?

Beware of what MS can do to your files once they are up on their servers under this FREE service.
See here what the Feds are doing to become 1337 and hit back. http://www.asktheadmin.com/2007/07/be-afraid-be-very-afraid-fbi-are-now.html
