Google gives data backup to music lovers

Following on from yesterday’s post about Interoute’s online attachment scheme (which they featured on the front page of their website, thanks) - Google has announced an imminent new service that is going to be a godsend for millions; online mass data storage which can obviously be used as a backup for all your files, or even a security measure if you’re one of those guys who keeps getting your laptop stolen.

“Google is hoping to distinguish itself from existing online storage services partly by simplifying the process for transferring and opening files. Along with a Web-based interface, Google is trying to let users upload and access files directly from their PC desktops and have the file storage behave for consumers more like another hard drive that is handy at all times”.

Plans are to assimilate the service with already existing Google tools so everything can be accessed from a single search box. Pretty cool eh?
