You can do this on SkyDrive today.
Onenote & Word (and probably the rest of Office) know how to save to SkyDrive, and there are web editors for Onenote, Word (and Excel & PPT, I believe) available on SkyDrive.
Granted, it's not entirely the same as Dropbox - the client needs to know how to talk to SkyDrive, but I also think that SkyDrive knows how to communicate via Webdav, so it's probable that you could get a 3rd-party client to read/write to SkyDrive.
- spinchange 15y agoI haven't tried SkyDrive through WebDAV, but previously (like >1 year ago) the only way to mimic Dropbox behavior was using it in conjunction with MS Live Mesh which was another piece of software & install/config and not as elegant or simple as Dropbox. (and also could only use a portion of SkyDrive space) I have wondered for years why simple directory syncing wasn't easier or built-in out of the box on MS products
- Splines 15y agoIronically Live Mesh started life out as FolderShare which predates Dropbox. FolderShare was awesome and met my needs perfectly - I'm a little disappointed that MS clearly dropped the ball with transitioning it over to an internal product.
