Store you documents in the cloud. Cloud storage or virtual storage or online storage refer to online servers where you can save your files, then access them from any computer using a web browser. Here are a few options for McCombs students, the UT Austin community and the world…
UT WebSpace (The University of Texas at Austin Only)
The University of Texas ITS department provides a free 1GB storage space for all students, faculty and staff called WebSpace. Use Webspace to store your homework, class projects or any file you don’t want to lose. You can share files with others and work cooperatively on documents using Webspace sharing options. Webspace also has a web publishing feature that can create webpages and ePortfolios for presenting your work to the public.

Dropbox (For Everyone!)
Dropbox is an excellent, no cost online storage site for everyone.
I found something as good as dropbox for online sharing, Its cheap fast and reliable. It’s called http://www.stocklii.com/en. I really enjoy that i can share my Photoshop documents online with my coworker, because we’re all working at home.
Dropbox is quite insecure. Try cloudsafe.com instead.
What about Google Documents?
Sklyer: Yes, Google Docs is great. It has about a 1 Gig of storage and now lets you save files in Office formats.
