Dropbox is a "cloud" storage service. The first 2GB are free, and you can pay for more space. https://www.dropbox.com/ You should take a look around at what people have said about using it before making any decisions- it may or may not suit your needs. it's been discussed here on this list plenty (click the link to the list archive below), and Dick Eastman has written about it repeatedly. http://blog.eogn.com/ There are other similar services around, SugarSync is one that comes to mind. Works a little differently, but the effect is much the same - your files are stored on someone else's server. Hope this helps. :-) Kind Regards, Wendy Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
