Too Paul had a mini tutorial on Dropbox which I found very helpful although I haven't used it as yet except to click on a link to download provided by someone who has uploaded a file for me.


I'll see if I can drag out that tutorial and will post again here.

Anybody who can do this sooner well fair enough.

best, Tony

It is a type of app for want of a better expression, and yes it can be installed on your computer Dropbox is a means of sharing files be it with others or your different computers, e.g. Your desk Top and your Lap Top. I have used it where I have wanted to pass on very large files, too large to be sent via e-mail. With Dropbox I have been able to send direct download links. Another use I have for it is that I can put important files in it which means I can access them over the Internet irrespective of where I am in the world. I do of course require an Internet connection for that purpose. Dropbox is free up to 2GB of space though I can stand corrected on that It is plenty for me but some people buy more space. While you can Google and download Dropbox to your PC it is necessary to Register with Dropbox. This will be your e-mail address which is your Username and then you set a Password also. Hope this helps. Others may be able to explain it better.

Hi All,

Just a note about how you send files to others on this list. Please if it's
a Microsoft Word document or a plain text document then either just attach
it to the email and send directly to the group here or else copy and paste
the text into an email and send into the list. Sometimes people aren't
either familiar with how dropbox works or for whatever other reason can't
seem to get a file to download from it so please in the case of text
documents use the preferred methods above.

Paul.
