Life is Better With a Dropbox

,----[ Quote ]
| Have you ever gone somewhere and needed some files, only to find that you 
| forgot your flash drive? Well, that can all change with a simple solution: 
| Dropbox. As long as you have a connection to the Internet, your files can be 
| with you wherever you go. Using Windows? No problem. Using a Mac? No problem. 
| Using Linux? Of course, no problem. And soon there will be an application for 
| the iPhone and iPod Touch. Prices are quite reasonable, and they even offer 
| you a free 2GB account that never expires.

How Dropbox ended my search for seamless sync on Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| As a Linux user, I have some pretty nice tools baked into the OS to help me
| get the job done. My approach is to store everything on my 4TB home NAS,
| which I can mount on my laptop via sshfs for secure remote access. It's a
| very seamless solution that works great when I have decent Internet
| connectivity, but it falls flat on its face when I can't connect or when my
| connection is unreliable. I had to augment this approach by using
| synchronization tools for critical files so that I still have access to
| important data when the tubes are clogged.
