I've been looking for a (free :oops: ) online backup solution for a while now. AOL's service seems amazing in theory but is a horror story in reality. I've tried tons of utilities listed in a Techcrunch article and was disappointed with most. The only one that seems worthwhile is DriveHQ who have fantastic desktop clients (one a file manager, another a backup utility that lets you perform automatic realtime backups). The downside: A 1GB cap for the free version and a nag box that pops up just once when you run it. How about looking at the online backup scene sometime Ryan?What else do I want from Google... hmmm lesse... I don't want to over-reach so I won't mention 'world peace' - how about plain ol' free high speed worldwide Internet acess? ;) Gdrive tops my list hands down.

What else do I want from Google… hmmm lesse… I don’t want to over-reach so I won’t mention ‘world peace’ – how about plain ol’ free high speed worldwide Internet acess? ;)

I love the integration with the tool bar and the fact that both ie and ff have the click feature on the star that allows you to easily tag and de-tag bookmarks.

I’d like to see built-in video calls, conference calls, landline calls, and the ability to IM multiple people at the same time.

Anything to enhance and push the ability to communicate even further would be tops on my list.
