Sure. Dropbox is doing an awesome job there. But from the developer perspective, he will still have to maintain multiple integrations into FB, Dropbox etc. If the developer treats dropbox as a local drive folder then he will still have to support things like progress bars, drag and drops etc for local uploads. So the pain will still remain.
- jseliger 14y agoGreat comment. I can say, anecdotally, that I send photos to friends / family using Dropbox all the time. Most of them are slightly confused by the idea at first, but when the invite e-mail shows up most of them click it and sign up (Dropbox also cleverly incents me to do this by offering more space for referrals). Dropbox, however, started wanting to copy ALL photos from my cameras and/or Pictures folder to it, which made me bristle because I don't want all my photos, and especially the NSFW ones, on Dropbox. >But from the developer perspective, he will still have to maintain multiple integrations into FB, Dropbox etc. Yeah. Especially because I'm averse to FB, but Joe down the street loves it, and Jane mostly uses Picasa, and so on.
