Default Dropbox

Im still after more space, so if anyone is interested in getting online storage give this a trt

Dropbox works just like any other folder on your computer, but with a few differences. Any files or folders inside Dropbox will get synchronized to Dropbox's servers and any other computer linked to your account. Green checkmarks will appear on top of your files to let you know that they're synced and up to date. All data is transferred over SSL and encrypted with AES-256 before storage. Dropbox keeps track of every change made to any of its contents.

Well I think I like it I took a look at the vid 3 times. I'm a bit of a chicken when it comes to trying new stuff.Perhaps it's just smart to check things out a little these days be for you sign up.
popeye67 not sure how this helps you get more space. I guess it's free? would you tell me alittle more about it. I mean like do you have to invite me to join or do I need to say popeye sent me? It seams like a usefull tool I think any one of us could use it.

popeye67 never mind I took the tour and found out there is 2GB for free.
I did find something about referrals but I did not get much out of that I have a thumb drive or USB drive that is 4G It holds a lot. I use it to down load things like Adaware Malwarebytes and so forth.to put on to other computers.And half the time I have other junk that's already on that thumb drive so I guess for free 2GB is still alot of room.

its a good program, plus if you use the link above and join and download the program, i get an extra 250 mb of space, up to 8gb max, and if you send out invites to people everytime someone joins you will get the same.

and it helps me pass things around

What I like about Dropbox it is a website with which I have an account so I can access my files from any computer anywhere.

So it's safe and I'm the only one with access to my files?
I think that's about the the last thing I have to ask.
most likely I will sign up for it and I can think of about six are eight others that could use it as well.

OG, ask as many questions as you like until you are comfortable. If there was a quota on how many questions a person could ask I would passed it along time ago and they would have kicked my off the forum that includes asking the same question over, and over and over again.
