26 August, 2007 Posted by SolSie As Free Utilities, Software, Windows PC

What formerly known as FolderShare and Windows Live Folder. Windows Live SkyDrive has gone through 2nd Beta with more Web 2.0 look. This free service basically provide for free 500MB of password-protected storage space for personal use, share with friends or family.

Windows Live SkyDrive comes with a significant update to the service, extending the basic functionality of the initial beta.

New features include:

  • Drag and drop file upload, making it easy to upload multiple files. Previously you were limited to manually selecting 5 files at a time, which made uploading a time consuming process.

  • Navigational controls to move quickly between files

  • A “recently viewed” section showing other users’ SkyDrive folders you have browsed

  • Thumbnails view, already announced by the SkyDrive team a few weeks ago.

  • The new Windows Live Wave 2 UI
  • The ability to embed files in a blog post or web page, allowing users to download them from your SkyDrive.

The update is now out, check it out at http://skydrive.live.com/
