Fancy 2GB of free online storage? The check out SpiderOak, which offers free 2GB online storage that’s compatible with Windows, Mac and Linux. There are several other providers of free online storage but it’s always handy to have additional options, and especially when it’s for free!
Features include:
- Access all your data in one de-duplicated location
- Configurable multi-platform synchronization
- Preserve all historical versions & deleted files
- Share folders instantly in web ShareRooms w / RSS
- Retrieve files from any internet-connected device
- Comprehensive ‘zero-knowledge’ data encryption
- 2 GBs Free / $10 per 100 GBs / Unlimited devices
SpiderOak promotes itself as offering something different form the normal run of the mill solutions, namely that it combines a suite of services into one tool and that it’s the first service to provide a zero-knowledge privacy policy. They claim to never store or know a user’s password or the plain-text encryption keys. this means that employees of SpiderOak can never access your data.
These two features are certainly attractive ones and watching the tutorial videos, the interface certainly looks neat and easy ti understand. I have signed up for the free 2GB account so I’ll let you know how I get on and how it compares to the likes of DropBox, my current favourite.
