Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

I am sure everyone uses Online storage services like Picasa, Google Docs, Windows Live Skydrive etc. for storing photos, docs and other files etc. There are numerous online services which let you share and store your files. But every time you want to access or upload files to these services you have to go these portal to do so.

Will not it be good if you can access or upload files to these services with the ease of moving files from one folder to other on your Desktop? Just like you do for moving any file on your system from one folder to other. Right…

Don’t worry, today I am going to introduce to a service which will configure your web storage services as a network drive on your desktop. Once configured you can access, view and open all your photos, documents and other files just like they are on your computer.

The service I am talking about is Gladinet. You need to just download the application from Gladinet, install it and follow the prompts to configure various services. Once you have configured various services they will show up as a network drive in your windows explorer e.g. as a X, Y, Z or whatever you wanna call it.

Gladinet (currenly in beta) supports Google Docs, Picasa, Windows Live Skydrive, Zoho and Amazon S3 services. At the same time you can access web applications as well like Zoho Docs, Adobe Photoshop etc. to open .doc, .xls and .png files etc.

In short, you can add the following services/ storage devices (as of now) to your computer for FREE:
