So Google is making waves today in the tech press because they’re offering increased online storage space. Read their blog for more details
While I’m a huge Google advocate and use their services for many online activities, I’d like to challenge them to do better than this. The options they have given us are merely more storage in their walled garden.
If I was going to pay for online storage, I’d look to Amazon Web Services’ Simple Storage Service (S3). With S3, you can use their storage however you’d like because they’ve released an API. For those with a mac, you can use JungleDisk as an offsite storage solution!
S3 is awesome. Jungledisk is cross platform, and works on Linux and Mac, too. And there’s a great Firefox extension that lets you access your S3 space, too, which is also awesome. 🙂
