Thread: SugarSync FiLe Syncing Service

IF YOU USE multiple com¬puters and mobile devices for creating arid editing documents, it can be tough to keep different versions of your files in sync. A new S5rvice called SugarSync goes a long way towards curing those syncing headaches.
SugarSync is both a Web¬based service and an application that you download; together, they provide a way for you to always have the most current version of a file, regardless of what computer you're using.

You configure the downloadable application, called SugarSync Manager, to monitor certain folders on your pc. Files in those folders are then uploaded to your personal SugarSync Web page, which acts as an online storage repository, allowing you to access them from any Web browser.



SugarSync excels when you begin making changes to your documents. Any time you make a change to a file, the changes are auto-matically saved to the origi¬nal version of the document on the computer on which it was created. SugarSync automatically saves those updates to your Web-based storage space, and also sends them to the original document on your office Pc.

Unfortunately, once you edit and save a file, only the newest copy is preserved.
Unlike many online stor¬age services, SugarSync isn't free.A nifty feature for cam¬era phone users allows them to have any pictures taken with their phones sent directly to their Pc. SugarSync provides a cost effective and easy-to-use solution to manage files on several devices.
