Dropbox Beta – Simple SVN

Yesterday in a technology forum that I check regularly I found out about Dropbox. Dropbox is a new multi-platform (currently only Windows and Mac OSX, soon Linux also) type of SVN program. Dropbox is in Beta Stage at the moment.

Dropbox

It’s very simple to operate. I installed mine and after 1 minute I was uploading and downloading files. I also installed the program in my Vaio Laptop and there were the files that I uploaded in my desktop. It’s so easy and intuitive that it’s just like managing a folder but that syncs with other computers where the program is installed. The web interface is very simple but does the job. You can undelete files, check a log of recent operations, etc… Check the video on their website, it’s pretty illustrative of its capabilities.

I totally recommend this program. I have 5 Beta Sign-ups to give to anyone that is interested. If you are, leave a comment and I will use the email in the comment to send you the invite. Only the first 5 get it, sorry but I have to save the others for my friends.

    This could be interesting… I currently have svn setup on my host, however its a true pain to deal with as I would prefer to automate the task and that has proven difficult even with webDAV setup. Btw forgive the double post if it happend…

    Nice site too btw , I look forward to see what else you put up.

    Sent an invite to you Hin Chin. That was my last. So if you guys wanna share, gotta be between yourself. Only thing needed is email.

    I recommend not putting your email directly into the post, but rather something like me [at] mail.com.
