Working through session 4.3 in Block 1 Part 2 made me think about cloud computing services.

Like a lot of people I use Dropbox, a file hosting service operated by Dropbox, Inc., with headquarters in San Francisco.

What are some other recommended cloud services? How many are out there? I found this PC Advisor article on ‘Best cloud storage services 2015’.

Services they review:

• Dropbox
• Microsoft OneDrive
• Google Drive
• Mega (this is a New Zealand-based company I’d never heard of. But the article reckons it’s very good security-wise. Might look into it.)
• Copy
• Tresorit (also v. secure apparently, but no free package)
• Box (mainly a business service)
• Knowhow
• MediaFire
• Apple iCloud
• Mozy
• Spideroak
• Amazon Cloud Drive
