Dropbox launched publicly


In a previous post I told you about Eeestorage and it not being available for the Eeepc 4G. Well, we don't care about that any more. Dropbox does the same thing and does it on Windows, Mac and Linux.

I already had dropbox on my computer at work (windows xp), but now finally they have a linux version available too. Go check it out on www.getdropbox.com. It works great, and above all you can share folders with other people.

For those Ubuntu 8.04 (eeebuntu) users, all you have to do, is add these lines:

deb http://www.getdropbox.com/static/ubuntu hardy main
deb-src http://www.getdropbox.com/static/ubuntu hardy main
to your /etc/apt/source.list, sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get install nautilus-dropbox, log out and log back in.

If you want to know more about the linux install, check there linux install page.

Combined with mozzy (https://mozy.com/?code=8CUSB2) it's the perfect solution :-)
