Microsoft Plans Gdrive Competitor

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the personal-virtual-bill dept.

gambit3 writes "From Microsoft Watch: The MSN team is working on a new Windows Live service, code-named Live Drive, that will provide users with a virtual hard drive for storing hosted personal data. From early accounts, it sounds an awful lot like Gdrive, the still-as-yet-publicly-unannounced storage service from Google."

    An FTP account all dolled up and made easy for mouth-breathers! Hooray!

    I wonder if Unca Bush helped prop up this technology to make it easier to wiretap all those 'terrorists' sharing their battle plans to topple his regime!

    It seems all MS does is COPY COPY COPY and COPY

    Copy Search, Copy google maps, copy gdrive, and probably next copy google cal.

    Don't these losers ever do anything by themselves? Where are all those "creative" people MS hired from "top" universities?

    All those big risk takers and inventors? MS is composed of a bunch of lame copy cats and they will pay the consequences later for their lack of ingenuity and creativity.
