Upload anything to Google Docs..
This showed up in my Google Docs yesterday.
About a week ago, Google announced they were opening up Google Docs to let you upload and store just about any kind of file - pics, sound, video, zip archives, etc. From there, you can share the files with other users, or send them out as an e-mail attachment. Files can be up to 250 MB in size, but with a standard Google account, you are limited to 1 Gig of storage space. You can by additional storage at $.25/Gig, not a bad price. This could certainly open up online storage to those who haven't used it before. And it would be handy if you didn't have a USB thumb drive with you to share files with someone.
Still, I wonder where this is going. With services like Dropbox, the Google app seems to be a bit anemic. To my knowledge, Dropbox has no file size limitation and their basic (free) service gives you 2 GB of storage space and features automatic synchronization with multiple computers. With the PogoPlug, I have all the storage I can plug in. Still, with Google, you never know. This may turn into a much more powerful "cloud drive".
Just don't put anything up there you don't want the Chinese to see.
