Google adds 'Google Drive' for cloud computing

In the "it's about time dept", Google has added Google Drive to their plethora of online applications towards the cloud highway.

Google Drive

Google Drive is a simple but nifty syncing program which adds a folder to your desktop, phone or tablet and plops all your online files within Google Docs and make them available offline. Syncing takes place when online. 
It's available for Windows and Android platforms currently. iOS users will have to wait until Google releases that version.


If you have a Gmail account, then you have Google Docs. Google Drive comes with free 5GBs of storage but for $30 a year ($2.50 a month), users get 25GB to use for Google Drive and Picasa, plus 25GB of Gmail storage. This is strong competition with Dropbox, Box and SkyDrive.
