How To: Sync Your Files From Multiple Computers And Access Them Via Web

Students and working professionals nowadays are increasingly becoming more dependent to flash drives and other devices of that sort. People can't seem to live without them, along with their phones, iPods, and video players. People carry storage devices such as USB sticks to make sure they've got access to their most important files/documents such as reports, assignment, installers, etc.

But as with many other creatures out there capable of forgetting, we sometimes miss to bring our USB stick. So we often resort to rush back to our home and fetch those files no matter how it would cost. And the trouble doesn't end all there. A simple misuse of flash drives often results to unexpected crash, and that means instant loss of files!
