How Dropbox ended my search for seamless sync on Linux

"Dropbox is a cloud storage service with really smooth native platform integration on Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X. The Dropbox client software will automatically keep files synchronized between multiple computers and the user's Dropbox web storage space. It detects when files are modified on the local filesystem and will immediately upload the changes. The web service then propagates those changes to all other computers on which the user is running the Dropbox software."

Welsh Beginners

"This site is designed to help those just starting out learning the Welsh language.It is not linked to any specific course but is more geared to the language as spoken in South Wales as opposed to North Wales. The principle reason for this is that I am learning Welsh in South Wales and this site is as much to help me learn as it is you."
