hey guys I'm KB HD here and today I have a pretty nice tool to show you guys by the folks over at NSYNC no not the musical group I swear but when I first heard of instinct I saw this it's okay to break up with Dropbox and I was like whoa whoa whoa like who do these guys think they are I love Dropbox you know and if you've never heard of Dropbox it's this really easy to use convenient cloud kind of storage system where you save a file on your computer and a copy of it appears on every other device you have linked to Dropbox in sync is like Dropbox with Google Docs so this software links your computer to your Google account so you can throw anything in this folder and that's game and will be uploaded and synced with Google Docs so let's check out the interface basically here's what it looks like on the web it looks just like Dropbox and you can go through all your files and folders just like you could on your computer and just like if you double click them if you click them here it'll go ahead and open up that file and it will pop up in Google Docs so if you have any images or things like that they preview right by opening in Google Docs you also have a number of things that you can do you can hit the drop-down to get a link to share the file or view other versions of it and also you have the number of people who can view the file in the blue box on the left and more info about the file to the right so it's a pretty pretty basic organized structure here so here on the desktop you get an NSYNC folder that you can put all your documents in so anything you put here will get synced to the Google Docs really fast but yeah it operates just like a normal computer or a normal file manager on Mac or Windows so if you change let's say this notepad file here it syncs I don't know if you saw but really really ridiculously fast it syncs with Google and of course when you go to Google Docs on your web browser you have the beautiful Google design and the neat organization of all your precious priceless files so glorious so here's that txt file that I changed unfortunately you can't preview a txt files that will good and downloaded here and you'll see that it is already that updated text file this is brilliant so why would you choose this over Dropbox you know both are on Mac and Windows what's the difference the short answer is storage both Google and Dropbox offer the first gigabyte free but after that Google is way cheaper all the way wait cheaper than Dropbox storage I'm talking like 20 gigs for five bucks a year it's a no-brainer so go ahead and give this video a like if you enjoyed you can try everything out below Happy New Year and I will talk to all you guys in the next video thanks for watching peace
