SkyDrive goes public, adds storage
WinInfo | at | by Mike
Lot amidst all the craziness this week, Microsoft launched the final piece of its Windows Live suite, the Windows Live SkyDrive online storage service. SkyDrive is kind of interesting because it's one of the few online services that Microsoft both announced and delivered before its most dominant competitor, Google. (In fact, Google has yet to officially announce an online storage service, though the company is clearly moving in that direction.) The final shipping version of SkyDrive bumps up the storage to 5 GB and is available in 38 different countries. What's still missing, however, is a way to bump up the storage, perhaps by paying a yearly fee. I'm sure that's in the works.
