So I've been hearing about this 'Dropbox' thing for a little while. Last night, I took a look at what it actually is and I realized it's going to REALLY help me with university and life in general.
Dropbox lets you put a special folder on each of your computers that you can access anywhere you have internet. For example, I use a netbook for school and a desktop for home and video games. However, I do homework on both computers. I've been caught a couple of times at school when I forgot to bring my homework because I had done it on my desktop and had forgotten to copy it to a USB drive.
So this is going to save me A LOT of hassle, and possibly recover some lost marks. And guess what? If you sign up for Dropbox from my referral link, I get additional space. I already have about 3 gigs without referring anyone, so any additional space is just icing on the cake, especially since it's primarily for school work, but what the hell, right?
Sign up! It's sweet:
here's my link!

Security issues don't bother you?
i once heard about this. Might try it out!!
dropbox is just amazing, i use the app for the iphone to so i can keep everything on the go
Drop box is great to have. There are some security issues but not a big deal if all you use it for is homework and innocent pictures. I got up to 8g with my account finally, I dont think i will ever use that up.
I used it when I bought my netbook to transfer the bulk of stuff over, but it's useless to me while I'm in Russia. I only have an internet connection on the one machine ;(
I love using dropbox... I just use the free service though
Ive heard of it several times...maybe Ill give it a try!
I've heard of this a bunch but never actually knew what it was for, It definitely sounds perfect for us students. Thanks for the post, I think I'll have to get myself one of these.
My dropbox is almost full
I'll have to check out Dropbox... a lot of people are talking about it
awesome since i always install my os alot this well help me say disc for somethings
That's pretty handy, I'll definitely keep this in mind since I forget things a lot.
haha, nice!
Looks handy! But then I wouldn't have the "I left it at home" excuse anymore. D=
Definitely wary of security issues, but it's something I'll look into!
this sounds pretty cool, i think i might sign up
I highly recommend using this, I used to use it for homework because I always forget the USB key at home or at the computer I print from :D
Dropbox sounds like a great way to backup and have easy access. Could it be a potential security problem though?
I use Dropbox daily
thanks for the info
didn't know about dropbox but now I do
keep up the good work
Dropbox syncs to 3 of my computers
Dropbox is awesome!
I did a post on Dropbox about a month ago :P
lol...great post
this one sounds really cool. maybe i'll give it a try.
It would of been nice if I had this during college but I still wonder how good Dropbox's security is.
hey that looks great.
or you just setup a nix server
or use google's storage
:D

Getting a new PC later today, atm I'm stashing my stuff in dropbox, feels good man.
