Google Drive, Ready to Compete with Dropbox

Discussion in 'Google' started by Master Directory, Feb 17, 2012.

    Seeing the success of Facebook, Google also went along to Google and Google Buzz +. Now, look at the success of onlinestorage services like Dropbox and Box.net search engine giant that too went along to make a similar service as Google Drive.This service is reportedly offering up to 100 GB capacity.

    Rumors about Google Drive has long been developed, Google Drive allows people to store photos, documents and videos in the ‘cloud‘. Google will accommodate those files on the server so that people can easily share files to others.

    Google’s service is expected to be made ??free to all internet users, but for those who want the extra capacity, he is charged.

    Strong cloud infrastructure for storage and all ancillary services has been prepared by Google for Google Drive support services.According to reports circulating, Google Drive will officially slide in coming weeks.

    A giant like google if he already beaten facebook with google +, dropbox wont even matter.
    Facebook had almost became number 1, I think that was when google dropped it's pagerank, but they outsmart it and they will remain number one.
    It is a very big company they can succeed in many domains.

    Makes a lot of sense for them to launch this service, especially if they can tie it back to their premium Google Apps offering, as a business I would love to see this in place, a company "quota" that could be managed per user through the Google Apps Control Panel.

    I would STRONGLY recommend you checkout Steven Levy's "In the Plex" book for a better understanding of Google and why this makes sense for them to get involved in.

    I don't think Google+ is anywhere near overtaking Facebook in popularity, but G+ is definitely doing better than Orkut was.

    Thanks for this info. I am a fan of drop box and it will be interesting to compare it to Google's service. I love how the cloud makes all of this possible. :)

    They can start any service, but it will be very difficult for them to become first...
