The Cloud companies are competing for end users for allowing them to use their services to store their memories(mostly photos/videos) in the Cloud (Ahem! remote harddisks that scale). Its the era of the cloud and sharing.

Pictures are the fastest way to capture a moment. A picture is worth a 1KB of words (but sized about a few MB). Sharing and saving photos, videos are getting famous and easy with cloud storage from each of Adobe, Amazon, Google, Dropbox along with Flickr (now providing free 1TB of storage). Google Glass makes it very easy to snap photos. (Article on Wired). (Don’t forget to read through the most boring parts of Disclaimer and T&C before using services).
