Lifestyle: Reminder: Dropbox is Freaking Amazing


Lifestyle: Reminder: Dropbox is Freaking Amazing


True Bosses have their lives organized, and no other service organizes your life on computers more than Dropbox.

Let me explain—Dropbox is like special server that you can put on your phone, laptop, and computer that easily and simultaneously keeps all your files in one place.

Let's say that you have a blog post that you're working on your home computer. If you wanted to work on it more from the office or from your mobile phone, you would either have to e-mail it to yourself, or carry it with you on a flash drive.

With Dropbox, you don't have to do any of that. Just open up a Dropbox, put the files in, and presto! Anywhere else in the world where you open a Dropbox you have the files you need. Or you can just go to the Dropbox website, and check it out from there.

There's a pretty high limit to the space on the Dropbox as well, so it's conceivable that you can put your entire music, video and picture library on it and have it available to access from any computer anywhere in the world.

Isn't that awesome? Stop what you're doing right now and get Dropbox. You'll be thrilled you did, and you'll be one step closer to Live The Boss Life.

    The best part is the automatic uploading when you save files to your dropbox folder.

    Yousendit is a great service. You can use dropbox similar to how you use yousendit, you just have to give someone your password to your dropbox (or set one up). It's not as easy as yousendit.

    That's one way to look at it, but it also functions like an extra hard drive.

    I've never heard of it before, but it seems very useful so I'll keep it in mind.

    Handy to know, but I personally use a portable drive and have it with me at all times, I can simply plugin to any computer mount the volume and go plug away at whatever I want to do with security and comfort.

    Weirdwhirl -- I agree! Dropbox gets better press too.

    Dropbox is amazing! Instead of worrying about filling my limited space on my phone with music, I can access a large collection through Dropbox.
