Free 5GB hard disk from Microsoft web

In the new news from Microsoft is drawn to a new free service from Microsoft.

Windows Live SkyDrive
The hard disk on the network: 5 GB free online storage, available on any computer with Internet access.

Since I'm naturally curious, I've taken a look at me closer. Thus, a virtual memory in the network benefits and 5GB is not just a little. What could you use this memory, hard disk size of the PCs is huge but in the meantime, there are USB sticks that are larger. So why not on memory in the network?

So I can use already, can I take my exercises and seminars as may from anywhere and on any PC to access them, even if USB and CD for security reasons do not exist. OK, the PC on which I sit needs an Internet connection, that will not do without.

I can save important articles (in PDF) and a client for quick access. I can picture that I do not always rumschleppe on external memories with me, outsource to the virtual memory and time with friends runterladen.Und just another option I have, I can share specific folders with friends and colleagues, although the degree of non- the Messenger can be reached and the file is too large for a mail.

the public folder that is available as well as me going, I certainly do not use, why should I share my files with strangers? However, each file has a unique URL on the Internet, maybe something for the blog?

Ok these are the considerations for me, but I also think a lot could do with it. Think of the diploma and doctoral theses, which you can thus save on a virtual memory and you rankommen from any PC, even if you have just a laptop or a USB stick there. The conversation with the friends come to the upcoming work and very fast on the PC is the friend found the place you wanted to show him. And on the road in an Internet cafe, you can easily upload the files that you absolutely need, but just does not stick to hand.

I'm all times as if a virtual disk created. How? With my Windows Live ID, which I have so anyway for the messenger already. After registration, then everything goes very quickly and smoothly.

Here again the link to the virtual hard disk:
