Work at home / at home

Since I have many kompiurerių, quite often there is a synchronization problem, namely the exchange of data between them. Has long been dealing simply refusing to powerful desktop and trying everything to carry with you on a portable computer. But of course, sitting next to another computer, if necessary, whenever any program, can no longer rašytis USB memory storage device. So I decided to use data synchronization services: Windows Live FolderShare and the recently introduced nezinau.lt Dropbox .

First the similarities: ABIS system allows you to synchronize the data automatically, without user intervention. Both have a Web user interfaces that are quite different.

FolderShare was available earlier, when he was not as aesthetically appealing and updated. The program synchronizes data and loads the choice: either automatically or by user request, as well as allow you to choose which folders to synchronize. The first time it was pretty hard with disappointment - deleting project files from one computer is not surprising, FolderShare, and deleted others. True, he does so quite it moves to its aesthetically designed šiuklių box. But it does not retain the directory structure, so the complex rebuild PHP project becomes extremely difficult. Other deficiencies noted lost. Big advantage of the program - you can make available files to another computer and nesėdint to it, it is important that the computer is switched on and it is running FolderShare. It is also possible to see past the choices made. Unfortunately, when trying to load a large catalog of complexity, for example. Portable Firefox on another computer it will not occur - in fact only "pointers".

Dropbox. This program still has far fewer features, and although the work automatically, the more interesting features seen and lost. The biggest shortcoming in the system - the system free of charge, synchronize only 2GB of data. It will not be able to select and sync folders - all you have to quit the program created in my Dropbox, but it has to create their own folders and so on. In addition, the program Dropbox, you can still set the sync speeds that do not overload the network.

But still will use FolderShare - at Dropbox has no essential function, as well as all major drawback - 2Gb of bandwidth limitation.
