Whether you are a parent following your child with a camera who snaps your little darling's pictures almost ever day, or a teacher with a collection of worksheets, student reports, student behavior logs and other resources for your classroom you might need additional storage other than the usual flash drives or CDs. Also just in case of computer crashes or those flash drives got lost, your pictures and documents are safe. Here are a collection of free online storage provider.
If you use more than one computer say one at work and one at home then Microsoft's Live Mesh will help you keep your important files in sync. No need to email files to yourself, carry them around on a USB drive, or worry whether the version you have with you is the latest. You have 5GB of storage for synced folders that you can access from any computer connected to the internet. What's more you can share these folders to colleagues. On top of that you have the ability to remotely access your other computers through Microsoft's Remote Desktop service, as if you were sitting in front of them, provided Live Mesh is installed on each computer and the system is on of course.
If you really need a lot more of free on-line storage, try Humyo, a free online file storage and backup service. You can access your documents and media from any computer or phone, as well as share and collaborate with others.
Dropbox is the easiest way to store, sync, and, share files online. There's no complicated interface to learn. It gives you 2G of free on-line storage and a utility that syncs that space with a folder on all your desktop PCs, as well as your phone. Drop a file in from one machine and it will update on all the others.
