I’m sure this happens to a lot of people: you have an important file on your flash drive and you need to hand it in, print it out, or take it somewhere else. Only problem? You lose your flash drive. It’s happened to me far too many times.
So that’s why I decided to eschew flash drives and emailing stuff to myself and use the power of the internet.
I found ಡ್ರಾಪ್ಬಾಕ್ಸ್, which lets me access my files from anywhere as long as I have an internet connection. I don’t even need a flash drive any more; I can just store everything I need on my Dropbox account.
