Dropbox - How to install on Linux (Debian)
O Dropbox é uma ferramenta que sincroniza ficheiros entre vários computadores, tenham eles, Linux, Windows, MAC, ou mesmo iPhone*.O funcionamento é muito simples, e passa por existir um serviço a correr em memória que sincroniza uma pasta seleccionada durante a instalação com um servidor remoto. Assim, sempre que se dá uma alteração dentro dessa pasta, o serviço vai sincronizar com o servidor do Dropbox. E mais, podem ter o serviço do Dropbox instalado em vários computadores, e assim, terem a informação sempre sincronizada.
*Até à data que este artigo foi publicado a versão para iPhone ainda se encontrava em desenvolvimento.
The operation is very simple, and goes through there is a service running in memory that synchronizes a folder selected during installation with a remote server. Thus, whenever a change occurs within that folder, the service will sync with the Dropbox server.
