Box Cloud Storage

Box is a cloud storage service that allows individuals to access files from any device with an Internet connection. Box can be used to share files and collaborate with any individual with an email address. The Box Sync service allows file syncing between multiple devices, i.e. between a computer and phone or tablet. Files placed into the designated Box folder and synchronized to Box on one device will populate to all devices on which the service has been installed. You can also use Box to store files that you then link to on a personal website or blog.

Using Box eliminates hunting for files across multiple devices, emailing yourself files or carrying flash drives or similar devices for file storage. If you wish, you can clear storage space on your personal computer by uploading files to Box and then deleting the local files.
