If you are not already using Dropbox, you really should take a peek at it!

Why? What the heck is a ‘Dropbox‘??

Glad you asked!

There’s a great video on the Dropbox site that gives you all the details – but as they sum it up:

“It’s like a Magic Pocket! A single, secure place for all your stuff.”

Ooooo, I like Magic!!

Yes, well, while that is a good description, in other words it’s free “cloud storage” that gives you the ability to access all of your important content from anywhere in the world.

For example, one way I use it is that I have a BTF folder in my Dropbox space. I keep the Fast Start Guide, the scorecard, my list of plug-ins, GoDaddy account codes, SEOTrackback files etc – everything BTF related – in this one folder.

Now I can access that BTF folder from anywhere! On my work computer, on my home computer, on my netbook – and even on my phone!

And it’s not that I have to surf out to a website and download this stuff (although, you can do that if you’re on someone else’s computer and need to) – it’s already THERE – on the device I’m using!

You see, what Dropbox does is it integrates into your device. So, on Windows, when I open up “My Documents” the Dropbox folder is in there. And when I click on that folder, there is all my BTF stuff.

When I copy or save something new into that Dropbox folder, it automatically syncs it to my other devices! So no matter which device I’m using – all of my important stuff is always RIGHT THERE!

WoW – it truly IS magic – isn’t it?!  :-O

Bottom line, if you ever work on more than one computer or device, Dropbox just makes life a whole lot easier. No more having to copy files back and forth, no thumb drives, no need to e-mail yourself a copy of that picture – it’s all in Dropbox.

Sounds pretty awesome!! I’m gonna go check it out! But, hey… wait a minute! If it’s FREE, why are you giving me a ‘referral link?? What’s the catch??

How observant!  :-D   No catch – and it most certainly is FREE. They give you 2 GB of storage space. Every time you refer someone they give you – and the other person – another 250 MB of free space!

So if you use my Dropbox link to sign up, they’ll give me another 250 MB – and they will give YOU another 250 MB of free space – so 2.25 GB of free storage!!

So, you could say I’m doing us BOTH a favor by providing my Dropbox link!

Or you could say I’m doing YOU a favor by clicking on it and signing up!!   :-P

Yeah, I guess you’ve got a point there!!  :-D

All kidding aside, Dropbox is a great service! I’ve grown to love it so much that I’m starting to get tight on space – hence the Shameless Promo here. But really, if you’re new to Dropbox, and you use more than one computer or device, check them out. I think you’ll really find it handy! And did I mention it’s FREE?
