Did You Know?
Cloud storage, which is storing our files online,
can save a lot of space on our electronic
devices. Cloud storage is also useful when we
want others to view our files. School projects
can be shared with your teacher, without the
need to attach files in an email. People can
work from home and share their files with their
co-workers or employers with a few simple
clicks. Storing your files online is also the best
backup.
Fun Fact!
Cloud storage was first invented by computer
scientist Dr. Joseph Carl Robnett Licklider in
the 1960s. However, it became available to
customers two decades later!
There has to be an easier way
to send files to the cloud!
