true that. so, how do dropbox-ish things work? 1) they automagically do some synchronizing when you put something in a directory 2) you [or a script] has to put something in the directory. Since you - or a script - has to do "something" anyway, why don't you just skip a step? and instead of putting something in a dir and let the magic happen, just call a script to upload/synchronize the files whereever you want, directly ?!?
