=====================================
Imagine you worked all week on a report for presentation to
an important client tomorrow morning. At the end of the day
you congratulate yourself and save the report files to your
computer's hard drive.
The next morning you arrive at work only to find your worst
nightmare coming true - your computer won't boot and you
can't get the files. Your boss starts breathing down your
neck to produce the report because the client arrives in
five minutes. What will you do?
Yahoo to the rescue! With lightning-like speed you jump
onto a colleague's computer and pull up your personal hard
drive on the http://briefcase.yahoo.com website. Log onto
your free account with a unique user name and password and
bingo, your files come up on the screen.
Almost instantly you download the report, print it off and
produce lifesaving - not to mentions career saving -
results.
Yahoo Briefcase, a free service of search portal giant
Yahoo!, offers users a free 30 megabyte hard drive on the
Internet. The site supports itself by -you guessed it -
displaying banner ads to entice you to buy things. The
advantages of the service, however, far outweigh any pains
of viewing a few ads.
Remote file backups Everyone knows they should back up
their files, but most people keep their computer and backup
files in the same place.
Ever wonder what would happen if your computer and your
backup files get destroyed by fire, flood or theft? Large
corporations spend big money to keep their files archived
on remote servers "just in case". Now you can do the same
thing with your vital files at no cost.
Mobile file access
Everyone moves around so much these days. Have you ever
wanted access to a file on your home machine while you
worked at the office? Ever needed to finish up some work at
home but with files on the office PC? Now you can easily
access, edit, share and modify your files anywhere you can
access the Internet just by uploading and downloading files
through virtually any web browser on any web connection.
File sharing between users
Do you enjoy waiting for huge files to upload or download
through your e-mail program? Nobody does! Don't tie up the
e-mail servers with file downloads, use Yahoo Briefcase to
share files with other users. Simply upload your files to
your briefcase and then email your friend a message with a
link and instructions to download the file. Yahoo Briefcase
even lets you place a time limit on how long the link
remains valid. This means the link will "expire" after a
certain period of time so people can't pass it around.
Digital Family Photos
Another great use for the service involves sharing digital
pictures over the web. As those file sizes grow with
enhancements in digital photography, having a password
protected spot online from which to share the virtual
family photo album comes in very handy.
