A report from Apple Insider states that Google is set to launch Google Drive,
their cloud storage platform, with some features that will place it as a strong competitor to the popular DropBox.
The file synchronization service is rumored to offer 5 gigabytes, more than double DropBox’s entry level storage, and will be compatible with a wide range of platforms including iOS. For those of you like me that already use several Google cloud services the lure of being able to consolidate one more facet of online life with a single provider is strong. How well Apple’s cloud sync platform iCloud will compete is still to be seen; the service is still on the formative stages with refinements to be released with the upcoming Mountain Lion version of OSX.
