For the past few weeks I have been using Dropbox. It is a wonderful and user friendly program for the sharing, synchronization and backup of all types of files. One of the features I like most is that it works well with PCs and MACs. No matter which operating system is used, your files are accessible.

Setting up Dropbox is simple. Go to https://www.dropbox.com/ and click on the Download button. Dropbox is free for accounts up to 2 GB.

What are the advantages of using Dropbox?

  • You can install your account on as many computers as you want and have access to all your files on all computers.
  • You can share as many files and folder as you wish, with as many people as you wish. You decide whom to share your folders with, by sending the recipient(s) an invitation.
  • When you share a file or folder, the recipient can only see the file/folder that you have chosen to share with him or her.
  • All files and folders are secure.

Online access is easy with your user name and password.

If you are looking for an easy to use file sharing program, Dropbox might be for you.
