Download Dropbox to your computer, iPad, iPhone, or Android device - or all of them! Access and edit the same documents from any device, anywhere. Dropbox is an excellent place to keep and share large files (like high resolution photos or even videos) so you don’t have to email them. A great place for group collaboration.
Pros: Create folders to share with colleagues, friends, classes, or independent study students. Documents are updated from any device or platform, and are always up to date. Can also sync between computers, so if you have documents saved on your personal computer that must be shared with a work computer or that of your spouse, all documents are synchronized everywhere!
Cons: No live editing. If you and a friend are editing the same document it creates multiple versions.

Store photos and docs online. Access them from any PC, Mac or phone. Create and work together on Word, Excel or PowerPoint documents.
Pros: The only service (between Dropbox and Google Drive) that has their own app for Windows phone. You can edit Excel and PowerPoint documents in SkyDrive's web apps. Installing the SkyDrive desktop application allows you to access every file on that PC it is installed in; so as long as your PC is turned on, connected to the internet with SkyDrive running, you’ll be able to access all your files through the SkyDrive website.
