I needed to access my keynote file from home as well as office. So I started looking for windows clone of popular rsync utility. Didn't find anything I like. One morning I has a Eureka moment and decided to install Subversion on my vps. After painful installation(some bash scripts were in DOS file format instead of UNIX, I wonder why) and spending almost a day Subversion was all set. Then it struck me to that I should have tried searching on techsupportalert. And look what I hit, another jackpot, https://www.foldershare.com/.
"Keep important files at your fingertips - anywhere. All file changes are automatically synchronized between linked computers, so you are always accessing the latest documents, photos, and files"
The interesting part about it is that Microsoft has recently acquired FolderShare, and is currently providing the service free of cost. A search on Google News reveals
"Just days after outlining its new software-based services strategy, Microsoft announced the acquisition of yet another offering to add to its growing portfolio of on-line services. Microsoft will hope to use FolderShare, a file-synchronization technology provider, to help it eclipse Sun's Open Office initiative and Google's own ambitious plans in this very same area."
"Redmond, Washington-based Microsoft said the acquisition will help it bolster its new strategy of providing more software-based services over the Internet, an initiative called Windows Live that was announced earlier this week."
makes me go hummmm.
