Some of the commentary on Google services was that they somehow "use" the data you keep with them .. possibly for face recognition searching and so on. Couple of questions: - How well is Google Drive working for folks? It apparently is great for android but some said "still in beta" so to speak. It seems to have integrated with Google Docs .. so that might make it great for all "documentation" backup. - Is G+ photo storage public? Separate from GD? Photo sharing may be the mention of Google use of user data. Does it do the conversion to 2Mpx during the upload? I suspect most of my iPhone images are too big due to the 8Mpx camera. I did read an article on moving iPhoto libraries to either DB or GD. Both were identical so apparently GD has the same functionality as DB. -- Owen
