I haven't looked much at SkyDrive (only getting 7GB :( ) There's another service that's starting up called Cubby.
But, so far the one that I use is Dropbox....because it has a Linux client. I suppose there's Ubuntu One...since they apparently have a Windows client...though there's something odd about it, because I was using it for backups...and then when I was on a trip and needed to restore....it wasn't current anywhere. Fortunately, I could ssh into my home server (without paying for the VPN level of hotel wireless, been in hotels where I've had to), and transfer the file from the Ubuntu One directory, that time. And, its always been a problem getting it to send my photos to the cloud when I'm traveling. I'll leave my laptop on all night, and it does nothing. Dropbox will immediately start uploading right away, and eventually finish....even if I have to buy more nights of hotel wireless. I haven't really looked at security much...though I probably should, since I'm putting more and more sensitive stuff into it....now that its up to 8.875GB (using 58.2%). Though before dropbox....I used to use regular email, then free webhosting and now paid shared webhosting...to sync files between home and work. -- Who: Lawrence K.
