The platypus pokes its head out
From this blog it looks like Google’s getting ready to launch gDrive (codenamed Platypus). Here are the features from the screenshot:
A filer for the whole world. But better.
Storing your files in Platypus has a number of advantages over storing your files on either your C: drive or filer.
- Backup. If you lose your computer, grab a new one and reinstall Platypus. Your files will be on your new machine in minutes.
- Sync. Keep all your machines synchronized, even if they run different operating systems.
- VPN-less access. Not at a Google computer? View your files on the web at http://troutboard.com/p.
- Collaborate. Create shared spaces to which multiple Googlers can write.
- Disconnected access. On the plane? VPN broken? All your files are still accessible.
