OneDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive, and Box: Which cloud storage service is right for you?
Found on CNet News on Wednesday, 19 February 2014
Microsoft is hoping that OneDrive will be the place where you store your photos, and the company is working on technology that will eventually sort all of the photos you take based on how important and meaningful they are.
Google Drive has the benefit of a built-in office suite, where you can edit documents, spreadsheets and presentations, even if you created the document in another program. The service also a large collection of extras, such as third-party apps that can send faxes or sign documents.
Just use the "cloud" buzzword and everybody is in awe. Those services might be useful for distributing data, like installers and iso images, but the idea of storing personal and confidental data there without some strong encryption should make people cringe; but you know the arguments: "it's just so convenient".
