Saving files online 'Cloud' ?

Hi all

I often work on documents at home or at work and often get confused to where the latest version is etc ! ! !

Is there a way to save files online which can be accessed from any PC and saved directly back online (rather than saving to PC and uploading.

Hope that makes sense and many thanks for your time.

Regards

Mike

I'm not sure about the cloud, but if you have a gmail account you can save documents online which enables you to always have access to the latest version

Re: Saving files online 'Cloud' ?

I use Syncplicity (personal edition) - a free service, you simply keep your documents in pre-specified folders, and the contents of the folders are replicated on your other computer. You can also gain access via a website. It works very well.

Depending what you wish to store in the "cloud", just make sure you encrypt it otherwise it can be for the world and his dog to see. Truecrypt is very good and free.
