What is that?
A place where you can share your private files?

RaiDrive has been around for many years in the Windows
environment. I have always used it to access up my GoogleDrive
as a network drive. In my case it's a Z: Drive
i.e. As if it was a normal network drive.

With the new Linux release announced yesterday, it is
fairly easy to set up. So now I simply have to
go to /mnt/googledrive and all my files are accessable there.
Once initially installed and Authenticated with Google... thats it's.
The /mnt/googledrive will be automatically mounted next time you login.

Ah I thought so, a place where we can put our private files on a server
from a stranger with a bad very reputation.

Thanks but no thanks.

Forgot to mention that it also works with OneDrive,
Dropbox etc. etc. Though I have never tried with them.

Seems to be a replacement for the GoogleDrive app and OneDrive app in Windows. Keeps your drive
(cloud storage) synced. Click the link and read "features".

I use grive2 a small app the syncs google on demand. I have it in auto start programs on boot, and
I have a batch file on the desktop that I can click when I update any files.

I might want to try this, looks like there is a free usage allowed option for just a few cloud
services, Google and One Drive are available.
