Thanks, did not know this existed. On further digging around, I see that Office Web Apps are coming soon. Looks like Microsoft is pushing back hard against its competitors.
The SkyDrive still needs a native client to be as useful as DropBox, but it's a step in the right direction.
- elblanco 17y agoI'm actually surprised that Microsoft has not yet made a "skydrive" drive in explorer that natively and seamlessly integrated with this service. From a perception standpoint, I hesitate to use this because it seems that MS doesn't yet have full faith in this service.
- aniketh 17y agoSkydrive explorer [http://skydriveexplorer.com/index.php http://skydriveexplorer.com/index.php] offers integration with Windows Explorer
- elblanco 17y agoThanks for the link. I also went out and found this one http://www.gladinet.com/ http://www.gladinet.com/ which offers mountings for google docs, picasa and a bunch of others...
- altano 17y agoYou probably want Windows Live Mesh if that's why you're looking for. It's like Dropbox, but a bit more complicated/flexible, has more free storage, can sync any folder on your system, does p2p syncing, works through firewalls without configuration, etc.
- elblanco 17y agoNice find, it's interesting that MS has all of these cloud storage and syncing solutions and no home-rolled OS integration and virtually no buzz or visibility.
