Cloud-storage service adds important features as it drops the beta tag.
Love Drop Box, I can imagine a time in the near future where I would happily subscribe to a service like this for £5 a month. It's just so useful, definitely the future of storage.
Same here, been running it on my NAS and two laptops, great software.
I've been using it for ages, had to give up on it sadly. I need a system where I can select which folders to sync, rather than just one special "sync" folder, and I need to selectively sync various users files across multiple computers, but not all of them across all computers.
In a way though, if Dropbox catered for that, it would lose some of its charm. The nicest thing about it is how simple it is.
If you read the article snootyjim they are certainly moving that way. Future revisions may very well allow that kind of control. While I agree with what you're saying about it's beauty is it's simplicity I don't necessary think they need to destroy the simplicity, just have that as default and a method of accessing and "advanced" mode where all these options are available if the user requires them.
same here. That's why i use Live mesh or whatever ms calls it these days.Quote:

Spoon, i take it your NAS is a custom build running Linux?
