Google Drive: Dropbox Competitor Rumored to Launch Next Week

  • Google is expected to release its Dropbox competitor, Google Drive, by next week.
  • Draft specs for the new cloud storage service have leaked. Google Drive will reportedly include 5GB free storage, will work in desktop folders on Mac and Windows systems, and will be available via http://drive.google.com.
  • TheNextWeb predicts that the service will also feature in-app document editing.
  • “Now as for the reliability of the information? It’s not at all uncommon for big companies to launch with partners for new features,” explains the post. “When that happens, the partners will often-times have a heads up to integration and specifics, and that’s exactly what appears to have happened here as it did with the Lucidchart leak from last week.” (The earlier report showed a leaked page for linking Google Drive to online diagramming tool Lucidchart for automatically syncing documents in the cloud.)
