I was an early adopter of Dropbox. However, I found that Dropbox's high usage of bandwidth precluded its use when I spent several months of 2011 in Europe with only a sparse 2 gig PER MONTH internet allowance.<p>I ended up by installing my own internet-accessible file-server. This also had the advantage that my data wasn't being controlled by an external entity with dubious privacy concerns.
I just got an email, that ntfs under linux won't be supported any longer. So you can no longer share a Dropbox partition in dual boot systems. Or am I supposed to mount ext4 under windows?
I just started testing Keybase filesystem. Looks promising so far. Everything encrypted, 250GB for free (for now). Sharing folders with my coworker works seamless.<p>The advantage over Dropbox is that it does not take any space on your harddrive. Also everything is encrypted by default.<p>A disadvantage is that your data is not available without internet, since it works like a network drive.<p><a href="https://keybase.io/docs/kbfs" rel="nofollow">https://keybase.io/docs/kbfs</a>
