Hello.

Has anyone else ever used this? I currently have it on my laptop and Iphone and it seems to work great for looking at documents.

Basically, you download it on a PC, get the free app, and then you can transfer docs and view them from anywhere you download it or on a website. Best part, it is free for 2 gigs.

I am using it now for my trip info as an experiment.

Anyone else?

I use Google Docs for basically the same purpose, but they are all stored by Google, so I can access them anywhere without having to install an app. Plus I can share them with anyone I give permission to. For example, I have a Google calendar of all our ADRs so the people we're meeting can decide which meals they want to join us for.

Also, for trip-related stuff, I use TripIt.com on my iPhone. You just forward all the confirmation emails (except Disney's - they don't work :headache:) to TripIt and it assembles an itinerary with all your travel details in one place.

But I've been curious about Dropbox in general, so I'll be interested to hear how it works for you! :thumbsup2

So good so far. I just updated my trip report and it showed updated on my Iphone in about 10 seconds. Handy tool.

I've been using Dropbox for probably about a year and I highly recommend it!
