Web mailbox as remote storage
THIS WEEK NetSpeak features an awesome tool that enables you to use your web mail account for storing/sharing files.
A significant consequence of the Google mail service, Gmail, is that it induced several Web mail service providers to give away huge mailboxes to their users. To help a netizen use this large storage space effectively, many tools are surfacing on the Net that let her convert the mailbox space into an on-line virtual drive for storing/sharing large files. An obvious advantage of storing data on an on-line drive is that one can access it anytime from anywhere on the Net.
