GDrive is now a reality

June 18, 2010 | Author: Michael Stromann
We all remember the saga of GDrive - a mythical online file storage, which Google (as was supposed) developed within 2 years, and then it just added the opportunity to upload any files to Google Docs. Along with this opportunity, Memeo Connect (the service for syncing Google Docs with a local folder) appeared. It seemed that the dream about GDrive had come true. But sometimes details decide everything. Until now, to download a file to Google-account with Memeo Connect or to open file from there it was necessary to launch Memeo Connect software. Because of this little issue many Google users switched to DropBox. But today Memeo Connect has released version 2.0 and its main feature is GDrive - the local drive, which exists on your computer and works like any other local drive.

You can copy / drag files (or folders) to it, save files to it from any application and open files from this drive. And all changes are automatically synced with your Google Docs account. This feature is available for Windows and Mac.

In addition, the Memeo Connect desktop client now can perform the full-text search in the online account (regardless of whether the documents are created in Google Docs or MS Office).
