Post Dropbox.
If you don't have dropbox yet, you're a F*CKING luddite.

https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTUzNzY3ODE5 <== AciD's on the referral train now

Dropbox is basically a web drive that syncs instantly to and from folders on your desktop. You download the app, sign in, and set up your security if you so desire. Then drag files to your dropbox folders and go nuts!

It's an amazing program that you literally forget about, yet in my case I use it every single day.

I synchronize my password vault between all computers using this. I can add passwords at work and have them available to me at home, securely. I use keepass by the way. When something fucks up (such as me leaving my vault open at home, then updating at work, corrupting one of the files), i can log into the site and revert to the previous revision. Same goes for restoring deletes.

Anyway this isn't just a "omg i need more space" thing, it's literally something you'll wonder what you did before having it.

Once you've signed up it'll provide you with a referral link to get up to 3 extra gigs of space for free.

Once I've got 2 gigs extra I'll replace my link in the top post with the next person to post their link. Et cetera.

It's mac/pc/linux as well. And there's an iPhone app that I know about.

What a motherfucker I would be if I didn't just sign up for Dropbox.

I signed up. If you're going to sign up now, here's my link to get me more space too. I like this idea. It's a good alternative to Gmail Drive.

Post Re: Dropbox.
perfek. i'll move your link up to the top post, i have more space than i'll use in a long while now.

thanks guys. this really is one of the top 5 util programs i've ever used.

The daring fireball guy puts it better than i can:

Use Dropbox. In addition to the fact that Dropbox is fast and reliable at copying files saved locally to Dropbox’s remote servers, Dropbox also remembers each version of each file you save. Dropbox provides syncing, remote storage, and simple versioning backup all at once. You can trust it. All you do is save your files like you normally do. And unlike all my other recommendations here, you can use Dropbox for free. I suspect the only people who aren’t using Dropbox are those who haven’t tried it.
