I do most of my personal dev now remotely on a bluehost server, dev and prod versions, using svn to manage code and production push.
I just started using dropbox for shared dev files, so have limited experience in that, but I can see where this might be a good idea. Work dev is a localdev/dev/staging/prod system using svn and webistrano as the release mechanism. I havent quite got their yet for personal projects. On Thu, Nov 29, 2012 at 11:01 AM, Erika L.
