NFT: Gmail hack lets you use space as a disk drive
 

Very sweet little hack for your windows box...

http://www.viksoe.dk/code/gmail.htm

After install just go into your windows explorer and in the my computer area there will be a new device labled "Gmail Drive", it will ask you for you login. Then you can just drag, drop, delete files just like normal. Very, very spoon.

Can you link others to files? Can you upload files of more than 5 MB (that's the attachment limit I believe)?

oh wow an extra GB harddrive.......what exactly is the point?

I just downloaded, will try it out. I doubt you can link anyone else to it, unless you want to give them your password.

If you have a computer at work, and another at home, it is a great way to have easy access from both.

why not just use xp's remote desktop feature?

10mb is the largest file it supports right now.

I need the space for graphics files, I'm tired of trying to keep them synced up.

Cause one is a 2k box.

my bad

Well, that and firewalls. I'm sure there are all sorts of ways to do something similar.

isnt the remote feature in xp a pretty big security risk?

ins't everything now a days a big security risk?

pretty much...




just trying to point out that this Gmail thing may be useful :shrug:

OK...lame. Only 10 MB per file?

I have almost 24 gigs free....one more isn't going to make much difference.

lame??




maybe you should try thinking a little harder, Mr. Meatpeeker
