Tell everyone there to keep up the great work! I don't know how I survived before symlinking my entire life to my Dropbox account; it was just a mess of rewritable CDs, USB drives, and rsync commands. Thanks for the heads-up that you won't publish anything to FB/Twitter without explicit permission as that's exactly what I came to the comments to find out. I doubt that more than a tiny fraction of your users read hackernews though, so it'd be nice if you added a tiny "why are we asking you to link up" and/or "what will happen if I link up" blurbs explaining that you're not going to instantly make us tweet how awesome Dropbox is (which I would do anyway, but I absolutely hate services that auto-post after connecting). Edit: This would really only be useful for powerusers unless you gave it a nice front-end interface, but would you consider possibly creating something similar to a .gitignore config for your Dropbox? I constantly get random junk files based on OS and editor that end up in my Dropbox folders that I'd love for the central service to just ignore when syncing (like Thumbs, DS_Store, vim swp, random editors throwing backups ending in ~, etc).
