Dropbox's Free Online Storage, and a Linux Client

by Sam Dean - Sep. 11, 2008Comments (2)

As JKOnTheRun notes today, free online storage service Dropbox has just come out of beta and is available to everyone. The company has also served up a beta client for Linux. The Linux client may be particularly attractive for owners of Linux-based netbooks such as Asus Eee PCs. Those usually come with very little local storage, and Dropbox will give you 2GB of online storage for free, or you can add substantial amounts for very little cost. Check out JKOnTheRun for more.

Yeah, would be nice for my EEE, but has anyone got the (GNOME) linux client working on the standard xandros os?

There's quite a few storage sites available now. I would see a complete list of free online storage sites and compare features and options before I chose a service. www.freeonlinestoragesites.com posts a good review of the top sites.
