Thoughts on dropbox

The final tool that i used in the groups is Dropbox, which i find good, but we didn’t had the big need for it. The Facebook document sharing and Google pretty much filled our needs, but other than that, Dropbox is a great tool

Share all files

The great feature about Dropbox is that you just drag all documents you want to save in the cloud or share with groupmates into a folder, like any other folder on the computer. This way pictures, word-files, pdf’s, zip folders and so on can be shared, which is quick and effective.

Use bandwidth

The drawback of Dropbox, is that when the people you share folders with change something or put a big file in, Dropbox will automatically download the file, and suddenly all of your precious bandwidth is gone. Also when you are uploading something big, you have to wait for your lowsy internet connection to get done, before you can do anything else.
