Too bad it stopped, this seemed to be such a good project. I wonder why it came out that nobody want to adopt this project. Is it because Novell was the sponsor? I wish I could twist codes like other geeks. ^_^

Well since then, many users have been using Dropbox that really works well or Wuala that works but still needs some improvements. And well well SKYDRIVE is there and there will be for now as many others. What bothers me on those is the fact that you have a company behind it and from previous experience (streamload, mediamax, that guys from california?) It always feels like you are about to loose your files if they decide to close their doors with no warnings. Maintaining backups and file availability is a frustrating thing to do.

I keep looking for alternatives. If some of you have found an interesting solution, please don't keep it in secret.
I'm looking those links now.
