OxygenDrive is interesting in that it provides a virtual drive that actually mounts. You can do standard explorer/command line options with it. There still is a sync mechanism as well, but it’s about the most seamless solution I’ve seen.
There’s also the standard web interface, as well as apps for iOS and Android. You can obtain cloud storage from them (free for personal, $$ for commercial), or frontend your own storage with their solution. As always, read the ToS with cloud storage providers. -sc From: Tobie Fysh [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, April 10, 2013 1:25 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Google Drive If we are throwing out our fav syncing tools SkyDrive rocks, Windows, Windows RT and Windows Phone all in sync.

I have been trying a lot of different "syncing" solutions as of late, as I also have been using Dropbox and Cubby. I have the desktop client on my home PC, but it has not given me any problems. It behaves a lot better than Dropbox for me, as Dropbox likes to index every time I am forced to reboot, which seems to take an unusually long time. The client at home I use to drop in PDFs of important mailers I get (Scan to FTP, copy to Google Drive) so that I have is wherever I need them. Otherwise, it's a simple web-based word processor/spreadsheet/drawing tool that works anywhere I go. ---- How are you trying to sync your Firefox bookmarks with Google drive? Are you using the Portable Apps version of Firefox, and seeing the problems when you are mixing the two together? (Very cool idea, BTW. I just wonder how syncing would work if you had it open on multiple computers...) Doesn't Firefox now have a native bookmark syncing feature, much like Google Chrome? --Matt Ross Ephrata School District ----- Original Message ----- From: James Rankin [mailto:[email protected]] To: NT System Admin Issues [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wed, 10 Apr 2013 03:37:57 -0800 Subject: Google Drive > Anyone else using Google Drive and think it is a bit rubbish in general?
