I rarely carry a USB drive any more, now that I have found Dropbox! \u00a0Not only is it a free online storage location, but it is cross platform as well! \u00a0 I can store a file in dropbox on my Mac, then open the file from dropbox on my Windows machine, my iPad, and my Droid phone! \u00a0 I have all my important documents accessible from anywhere (and yes, I do back them up offline, “just in case”).<\/p>\n

I found out yesterday you can even share a folder inside your dropbox. \u00a0 As an Ambassador for FableVision Learning, I received an invitation to share a folder that contained a “yearbook” of all the current Ambassadors. \u00a0We each have access to it and can edit our own contact information. \u00a0 VERY slick!<\/p>\n

To start your FREE dropbox account go to: \u00a0http:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/<\/a> Once you open an account, there is a free app for the iphone, iPad, Android, \u00a0and Blackberry, as well as downloading the application to your Mac or PC!<\/p>\n
