Hi Christine
 
I have a list of online backup sites in this blog post:

Don't forget Gmail! If they have a Gmail account, they can send the file
to themselves. Gmail offers several GB of storage space for emails and
their attachments. Free.
 
If they need to share the files, you could go reasonably low tech and
set up a Yahoo Group and allow File access. Members can post files to
the File folder and other members can access them. Free.

Hi Guys

 

Has anyone been using on-line file storage?  I want to write some
instructions for students to store their files on-line so that they can
access them from any computer.

 

I have set up Windows Live and Office Live, both of which offer storage,
however they are very cumbersome to set up and use as they have so many
other unnecessary features.

 

I would prefer something simple that either has only storage, or only
storage and shared access.

 

Does anyone know of a simple option for free on-line storage where it is
only a few keystrokes to set it up and operate it?

 

 

Regards

Christine
