Google Docs just got a stealthy new update with some massive ramifications. Now, you’re no longer limited to storing plain old text documents and PowerPoints, but any files you like. Say, doesn’t that make it the long rumoured Google GDrive?
Over the new few weeks, the big G is adding a neat addition to Google Docs: the ability to store any file you like, each up to 250MB in size. Users will each get 1GB of storage free, with additional space paid for separately ($0.25 per GB in the US, or around 15p).
Google GDrive online storage service incoming
Of course, plenty of services offer something similar already, but this could bring cloud storage to a whole new audience of unsavvy web surfers, something the search giant will need to do to make Chrome OS a success. And better yet, Memeo Connect on PC and Mac already supports any file format syncing with Google Docs, so you won’t even have to skip through the cumbersome upload process overtime either.
Watch out for a bubble notification about the new Google Docs feature when you log-in sometime soon, and we’ll bring you any more news on the artist formerly known as GDrive as it breaks.
