File Explorer 2.0

Dropbox is now open for everybody. On the blog the team around Drew Houston announced the public beta of Dropbox.

The same blogpost also mentions the availability of an option to buy storage:

Our most common request has been for more storage. Next week, you’ll be able to buy a 50GB Dropbox for $9.99/month, or $99.99/year. Don’t worry — the free 2GB accounts will always be free, and you can keep the amount of space you had in the beta. Stay tuned for more on this.

These prices are pretty much the same as Wuala offers (50GB is $95). But I have to say, personally I like the Dropbox method better. You just have a folder on your computer or Mac (Linux client comming soon) and can drag and drop your files with the Explorer/Finder. No need to start a huge, memory intense client.

So give Dropbox a try! Just download and install their client and you get 2GB of storage for free.
