Gmail Drive shell extension

In a time in which it is every time more important to be able to access to all our contents wherever we are and have a huge space for storage, Gmail Drive shell extension is a really curious solution that comes directly from the developers of Linux.

It is more than probable that you already know Gmail, the free service of electronic mail from Google. Well, then, with this program you will be able to convert the space you have in it as if it was a virtual hard disk accessible from My PC. Actually, it is nothing else than a shell extension that uses the file system of the email as a new hard disk. This is achieved with a small trick: the program sends directly the files that you put as attached in your emails. As it could fill your inbox and it can be really uncomfortable, we recommend you to create a filter for these files so these messages are filed or sent to the folder that you select. Anyways, once you have done it, you do not have to worry for anything else as in My PC, this space will behave as a normal hard disk: you will be able to drag and drop, cut, copy, delete files, etc., but you need to take into consideration the limitations that Gmail has: the total storage space is about 10 GB and you can only manage files of as much 25 MB each.

With Gmail Drive shell extension, you will be able to get out some difficult situations thanks to the possibility of free storage that it offers you.
