Hi all,
I'm considering to upgrade to a Google Docs Premium Account (gDrive)?
I'm wondering if that can be used as I'm using Amazon S3 at the moment. I'd like to upload images.
Do you know if there is there any limit on the number of images I can upload on my 200GB Google Docs account?
I think it could be really useful to have something like that and we could save some money on our webapps.
Thank you ;)
