Ready to Get Dropbox?
Posted on Jul 27, 2013 in Tech Tips & Tricks | 0 comments
Dropbox is an incredible tool for:
- backing up your files
- keeping files in sync across multiple computers
- collaborating on files in group projects
- sharing files with others more easily than emailing attachments
The free account has 2 GB of storage; paid accounts offer more. You can also get more storage for your free account in a few ways, mainly by referring friends to Dropbox.
In fact, if you yourself are referred to Dropbox, you will get 500 MB of extra space, and the person who referred you will also get 500 MB. It’s win-win. If a friend told you about Dropbox, ask them for their referral link. If nobody else is giving you a referral link, use this one: http://db.tt/yAkirXST
(note: you can share your referral link with others by going to https://www.dropbox.com/referrals while signed in)
