From month to month I check several cloud storage services like Dropbox and Google Drive. I test them and check about any new functionality their developers might add. But still, there is not one service on the market that really rules.
Companies like the two mentioned on the previous paragraph might be more well known than others but still they are missing several features and flexibility.
The following is a list of must have´s for a cloud storage service to really lead the market:
1 – Not everything in one folder:
I have several hard drives con my computers and work on a certain way with them. I don’t want to change the way I work to be able to use a service. Dropbox works very well but having to put everything into one folder really makes me sick.

I have a lot of friends who play Candy Crush Saga on Facebook. I really don’t play much anything and it is starting to be irritating to have a lot of automatic posts in my Facebook timeline about how my friends are doing with their game progress.
I don’t blame them, they probably don’t know that this is happening or maybe they totally ignore these messages as most of them are fans of the game 🙂
I prepared this short message you can share on your Facebook timeline so that your friends can disable the auto post functionality by Candy Crush Saga. A lot of your friends will really thank you:

I usually help a lot of friends and family with their computer problems and doubts, I also help them to decide which computer, peripheral or accessories to buy when the opportunity arrives.
One of the most frequent questions I receive is, OK, I have my new computer, and now what?
I personally like to configure things a certain way, install certain applications that will allow me to do almost anything I will need to do with the computer. So whenever a friend asks for help I try to commit the same way with them as if it was my own computer.
The following is a list of most of the tools I will install on a freshly installed computer (assuming nothing of this is already installed on it). (more…)

Hi there! Just wanted to share with you a request I´ve just submitted to Facebook.
Hi, I´ve been adding a lot of pictures from my life. I´ve added the date or the year the picture was taken. As I find more pictures I add them, but the problem is that then they are all mixed up in the album. I am a baby on the first picture and the second one maybe is when I was 30.
I know I could arrange all the pictures by dragging and dropping the albums but when you have a lot of pictures it really takes a lot of time.
It would be great if you could implement a “Sort” button, allowing us to click there and make sure all the pictures we add are shown according to the date we defined in chronological order. Basically the same thing Facebook already does with the Timeline itself but for albums.
Thanks in advance for taking in consideration this update.
What do you think of this request? Should they implement it? Please share your comments below.

Me and my girlfriend have iPhones & iPads (well technically I dont have an iPhone yet), that would be 4 devices. We bought the devices at the same time so the chances of picture names overlapping is preety high.
I use Windows and my girlfriend too, and when we have to download files from our devices into our folder structures (which we share on the network) then some overwrite could occur if we are not really paying enough attention at the Overwrite? question.
