[Ubuntu-US-NM] Google's GDrive Coming Soon

[Eric Krieger]

An interesting quote...

"Store 100% of User Data

With infinite storage, we can house all user files, including: emails,
web history, pictures, bookmarks, etc and make it accessible from
anywhere (any device, any platform, etc). We already have efforts in
this direction in terms of GDrive, GDS, Lighthouse, but all of them face
bandwidth and storage constraints today. For example: Firefox team is
working on server side stored state but they want to store only URLs
rather than complete web pages for storage reasons. This theme will help
us make the client less important (thin client, thick server model)
which suits our strength vis-a-vis Microsoft and is also of great value
to the user."
