[...] It seems that Microsoft is working on a new virtual-storage service, code-named Live Drive. Microsoft is planning to use its server farms to offer anyone huge amounts of online storage of digital data. It even has a name for that future service: Live Drive. With Live Drive, all your information - movies, music, tax information, a high-definition videoconference you had with your grandmother, whatever - could be accessible from anywhere, on any device.

[...] In an April post about Microsoft’s forthcoming Live Drive, Michael Arrington wrote the following. “From what I am hearing around the valley, Google Drive is a 2007 product at best, largely because of product priorities and business model issues. According to sources, Google is trying to work out a way to provide the service for free (and there are very large bandwidth and storage costs with storage, obviously).” [...]

[...] in Uncategorized | Tuesday, July 25th, 2006 | Trackback “We first wrote about Australia/Silicon Valley based Omnidrive, an online storage company, in late2005. Since that time we’ve extensively reviewed various online storage services, including rumored products from Google and Microsoft, as well as Amazon’s storage API solution (update here) for application developers. This space continues to heat up, to say the least. Fast forward six months. Omnidrive is yet to launch, but they’ve continued to build out their service. Last week they invited in a new round of beta testers for their product, which includes an online and client interface (Windows only, Mac still in development). I’ve tried out the service and am posting a few screen shots.” Full story Omnidrive [...]

I’m in awe at how many options we now have for these online virtual storage places.

It’d be nice to see who’s been in the business the longest and/or who is in best shape for staying alive for at least the next few years.

Comment by Jonathan…

The fallacy with that argument for the truly paranoid is that AES-256 is an encryption scheme developed in part by the government- other algorithms exist, some of which (like blowfish) are deemed preferable for reasons of speed or design, but in the end- whenever you publicly put your documents out, you can not ensure they will not be read.

It’s kinda like putting your money in a safe and then putting it out on your front yard- someone can still get into it, and perhaps the fact that you have attempted to make it harder to get at will make it a more conspicuous target.

No doubt, .mac needs improvements - especially in the case of storage.
I have to admit, it’s sometimes a pain in the *** loading stuff up to the iDisk. This definitely needs to be improved.

>Big deal about iDisk and .mac being “first” to offer online storage. It’s funny that I’ve never heard of it until MS and Google are reported to be developing it.

Read the news, get the whole view, not only the Windows side of the tech world.

“Store everything offsite? In a world where the government is already into warrantless wiretaps? Not for the paranoid. Or sane.”

That’s where encryption comes in to play… AES with 256-bit keys scares the Gov’t because it is very hard to crack.

That is really good. I’ll be looking forward to Microsoft Live Drive. With past experience with Microsoft Live Office and Microsoft Live Mail, their initial release was pretty terrible, because accessing applications on their servers were pathetically slow (like a snail crawling compared to hare as in GMail). However, over the past few weeks, they have improved the bandwidth and accessing the site were much better, albeit not as fast as GMail.

Nonetheless, I am looking forward to Live Drive. I hope they will do a good job in terms of bandwidth resources. It is quite unacceptable if the bandwidth is not good enough, to transfer data.
