      Not having a GMAIL account, I'm curious to know how this shows the google ads. Because if it doesn't show them, I suspect it won't be around for long. Michael CP Blog [^]

      That's my main concern. Store something out there and then one day, Google basically says, "Hey. We didn't authorize this usage" and Woomph! Bye, bye data.

                I think it's pretty useful. It allows to easily share data at work, at home etc. Way better than FTP'ing or burning to a cd...

                  I wish the source code was available. I'd love to see how adding a "fake" drive is done.

                    That is really cool. :laugh: I think I may give it a try. Have you used it yet? And if so, does it work as advertised? Brian Van Beek

                    Yeah, it seems to work ok - currently has a limit of 10mb per file, but otherwise seems fine It's not actually a "drive" as such though, it seems, more like an FTP connection - you can't directly save files to it from an application, or directly open files saved on it (you need to drag/drop files through explorer) -- Help me!
