I am a little confused about Google Storage Manager. Is this supposed to be a consumer facing product? AKA dropbox killer?

  No, it's an Amazon S3 competitor.

    Then what is the point of the frontend app?

      S3 has a web based access application as well. It is nice if you need to just manipulate a few files, check that a backup actually did make it to S3, etc. Dropbox isn't really a storage company (they're built on top of S3) their secret sauce is in the syncing.
