GDrive

  
  
Recently news of a new service called GDrive leaked out from the Googleplex. This service would allow users to backup their data on to Google servers and can be accessed from any place. Given that most of us with important data on our desktops have some kind of backup device anyway, this would be a no-brainer. Google's desktop search  team has already announced an idea to allow users to store an index of their office and home machines on Google's servers. The GDrive idea dovetails well with that plan. Google's database of intentions is growing by the day! Now hackers needn't bother breaking into individual desktops, they can simply focus on Google's servers :-)

I have been an enthusiastic DriveHQ user for almost 2 years. Their service is great!

All GDrive features are long available and better on DriveHQ.com. Visitwww.drivehq.com and watch the demo.

# Backup. DriveHQ Online Backup works great. It has a lot of high-end features, much better than GDrive, including versioning, scheduled backup, encrypted storage, compressed upload, incremental backup and resuming, etc.

# Sync. DriveHQ FileManager can sync multiple PCs, multiple user accounts.

# VPN-less access. You can access your data from anywhere using a web browser, any FTP client, or DriveHQ Cline software, or SMTP/POP3 email with Outlook!

# Collaborate. DriveHQ Group Account service is a true enterprise class collaboration platform. You can easily share folders to different people with different access rights. DriveHQ Group Account owner / admin can create/manage/delete sub-accounts.

# Disconnected access. On the plane? VPN broken? All your files are still accessible as DriveHQ FileManager can cache the data for offline access! DriveHQ even offers SMTP/POP3 emails for offline Outlook access with unlimited email storage!

DriveHQ offers basic service for free. So why the hype and why the wait? Sign up at: http://www.drivehq.com/?refID=2925384
