Do any of you guys use Dropbox? It’s been out for quite a while, I have been using it for a couple of years, and I absolutely can’t live without it. I use multiple computers/devices: 1 laptop at work, an old laptop at my apartment , a good gaming laptop, my wife's laptop in the US, my android phone, my wife's ipad.

Often in the past I found myself needing files that are stored on other computers. Or I found that the most up to date file was on different computer. Usually the file I was looking for was my resume, household budget, personal project files, etc. In the past I would email the current version to myself so that it would be available on another computer. But then I still found myself accidently using an old version or just not knowing that I needed a particular file on a specific day.

Dropbox solved all this and more for me. Now I store/modify personal files on any computer I am using, and it is instantly duplicated on all other devices. I now keep up with my receipts, bills, budget, resume, new house plans, and so much more on Dropbox.

Once you install the software you establish a Dropbox folder. Any file or folder nested inside the Dropbox folder is instantly shared with all your devices. There are other features for easily sharing files or folders with others. There are other services that allow others non-users to upload files to you. There are even apps to keep your files at your mobile finger tips.

Anyway I highly recommend Dropbox. If you want to try it out use this link and I will get credit (more space). http://db.tt/DvSkmG2

I use it constantly, to synch files between work and home and various other PCs. I used it a lot for the role playing stuff, actually.

I like how you are sneakily trying to get more space! I think I have 3.8 GB available, and I'm constantly up against that cap.
