If few years ago, I talked about cloud computing/storage, for most of the people it was completely new words, but now days even a novice know that what is cloud storage or what is its benefits.
Now days online cloud storage has become a necessary things for every computer users.
If talked to present then the most popular online cloud storage is Dropbox, Google Drive etc. but the main problem with all of these is that they only offer a few amount of storage(like as 2Gb, 5GB etc) for free. You can also buy extra storage by paying some money, but why to spend some money, if you can get unlimited online storage without paying a penny.
Yes, there is one cloud storage company: Bitcasa, which provides its users to infinite cloud storage(free until it is on beta version, after beta it charged $10 monthly fees). Bitcasa was founded in July 2011 by former employees of Mastercard, VeriSign and Mozy.
