This looks like a great program! It's a simple, easy to use way to automatically copy and share your files with other computers or other people you choose. If you have more than one computer and want to keep your data up to date on both computers, here is a great solution. Imagine being able to automatically have a copy of your genealogy files available on your laptop when you go on a research trip. Or, have the new data you've discovered on your trip available automatically when you return home and want to enter it into your genealogy software program. Or, think of the possibilities of sharing your research with other researchers! Both researchers (or as many as you want) can work on the same files and both will have access to the updated data! Wow! Best of all, it's free! You get the first 2 gigabytes free and if you need more you can purchase it for a reasonable fee. For more information or to establish a free account with 2.0 gigabytes of storage, go to http://www.getdropbox.com.

This does look like a nice product. The system requirements do include: - At least 512MB of RAM - Free space on your computer equal to your Dropbox storage quota - If using Windows, must be XP or Vista Jo Ann -----Original Message----- From: maringensoc-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:maringensoc-bounces@rootsweb.com]On Behalf Of Gene Pennington Sent: Tuesday, September 29, 2009 8:19 AM To: MCGS Mail List Subject: [MarinGenSoc] A Great Program to Share Your Genealogy Data This looks like a great program!
