Google: A Smooth Drive?

You now have 5GB of storage space -- a great improvement over the previous 1GB limit. Even more impressive is the ability to sync files from your computer or mobile device to Google Drive and, by extension, to every other computer you've connected with Google Drive. Share a single file, or an entire folder, with other Google Drive users.

Keep in mind you'll need to install Google Drive on your computer. Accessing Drive via a web browser offers the same functionality as Docs did.
