Google Drive (or Dropbox) support would be an interesting addition to jclouds. These syncing services provide programmatic access to the underlying storage, perhaps sufficient to implement the jclouds BlobStore abstraction. Note that the use cases for syncing services are much different than object storage (like Google Cloud Storage); the latter tends to scale to greater number and size of objects, more clients, and support different privilege mechanisms. If this interests you, I encourage you to look at the existing Google support which implements OAuth. This will give you a good head start on any implementation.
