Some things are best kept simple, and that's exactly the way Share1t.com approaches its file sharing service.

But now the big G's making it official. Email attachments up to 20MB are supported.

Websites, or website components can easily be changed into something totally different just by swapping a single CSS file, or a line within a CSS file.

After wondering why Google had purchased Jotspot some time ago, GuillaumeB and Google Operating system among others have come to the conclusion that JotSpot could be the start of a home for all of Google's applications and our documents; "The GDrive". ...
