For the last couple months, I have been living my life from Google’s Beta Chrome laptop. It’s great for the most part. Boots fast. Does most of what I need it to do. But it doesn’t have a freaking file browser, yet… and that’s a big problem:

Tonight, when I vanquished my Kindle’s screen against the sharp end of a pointy stick, it was a real bummer. I’ve got a replacement coming, But what about the books that I got from Project Gutenberg? Am I supposed to re-download those to the Kindle’s terribly slow browser? I think not.

Fortunately, Dropbox is there to save my life. I’m currently uploading all the books from my old, busted-ass kindle to the Dropbox and afterwards I will be able to download them to the replacement device. Sweeeeet.

If you want to checkout www.dropbox.com, I think they’re pretty cool and signing up through that link will get me an extra GB of storage with them :)
