I disagree with the "Dropbox, iCloud, Google drive" thing. Nobody is using them as a platform to work their files on, but more as a quick way of sharing files.

- wanderingstan 12y agoDefinitely not "nobody". I've had several clients where the dropbox folder was where work got done. For all of my non-git and non-movie projects, dropbox is where the files live and are worked on. When a friend had his laptop stolen he said that it wasn't a big deal other than the money lost, as 90% of his files were in dropbox or Google drive. In my world at least, this is the way the wind is blowing.
- weland 12y agoOh, were that be true! I've seen stuff covered under bloody NDAs being carelessly shoved into Dropbox or Google drive. No one serious about their work is using them as a platform to work their files on, but they are used for that.
