Google Drive is coming very soon : free online storage tool from Google will be launched by early next week, probably on Tuesday. I hope this is true this time, because I hear rumors about Drive since 2007!
Just an URL to remember: drive.google.com
According to The Next Web, Google’s service will offer 5 GB of free storage and will be available for Windows, Mac, Android and IOS.
“What’s interesting though is that Google is planning to start everyone with 5 GB of storage. Of course you can buy more, but that trumps Dropbox’s 2 GB that is included with every account. Dropbox does make it easy to get more space, including 23 GB of potential upgrades for HTC users. What’s also interesting is the wording related to how the system will work. It’s been long-thought that Windows integration will come easy, but that getting the Google Drive icon into the Mac a la Dropbox would be a bit harder. From what we’re reading, Google Drive will work “in desktop folders” on both Mac and Windows machines, which still leaves the operation question unanswered.”
