Yeah, well I didn't know about the ones for Linux, etc. 
So I guess GmailFS is better. 
Well ... there you go Windows users [me] ... that have, uh, maybe some good 10mb files to store ... 
I tried.  |

Hello and welcome to last year! This would actually be pretty cool if not for 2 rather crappy restrictions:
1) 10MB size limit, doesn't create multiple messages to split up large files.
2) Can't assign a drive letter to it! |

heh... 
GmailFS has the same concept, except that it's not for Windows. Pretty niffty, if you ask me. It even does a trick to use multiple emails for files more than 10MB (Gmail's size limit). I'm sure that this one does the same. |

Check this out . . .
That's pretty slick I'd say.
"But basically GMail Drive acts as any other hard-drive installed on your computer.
You can copy files to and from the GMail Drive folder simply by using drag'n'drop like you're used to with the normal Explorer folders." |
