I suppose not everyone knows Dropbox, since I just got to know it a few weeks ago, after a disaster of my computer, in which I lost 15GB of my documents and pictures.

After trying Dropbox, Live mesh and Skydrive, I feel that they are good, but dropbox may have advantages in its great function of sync and unlimited single file size.

You may have 2GB free space and up to 100GB if you buy it.

You can register it by the following link

One suggestion held by many forum members here is that you always backup your files. I had a situation about two years ago where I lost 10 gigabytes of video files because of a dead hard drive. I was able to store the hard drive in a freezer for two hours and recover SOME of the video files, but not all. Next time, backup ALL your files.

I've been using Dropbox for years. It's very convenient for me and my partners to share files and also backup them :)
I suggested to my friends, so Dropbox thanks me by giving me 2GB more. Now, my capacity is 4GB :D
I strongly recommend you to use Dropbox for sharing and backup file online.
