While Google Drive is no-way near the massive offering of free cloud storage like 10 TB from weiyun it does offer an excellent streamlined document editing, sharing and storage solution to Gmail users. Google has two great news for users, first they are giving away the popular Quickoffice mobile application to open and edit Microsoft® Office documents across your Apple iOS and Google Android devices for free and also topping up the offering with another perk by giving away an additional 10GB of free cloud storage space on your "Google Drive" account if you link the two by September 26, 2013.

The much rumored Google Online Data Storage service "Google Drive" is no more a speculation, as it finally got released publicly by the company. "Google Drive" not only allows users to save, sync and version-backup their files online but also offers the ability to create new documents, spreadsheets and presentations instantly and have them collaborated with others.

Supporting over 30 file-formats including HD video, Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop you won't need an computer to read these files, the service also offers advanced searching and tight integration with Gmail and Google+ for faster sharing and easy collaboration.

Microsoft SkyDrive offers a generous 25 GB of free online-storage but lacks the simplicity of having the online-storage mounted as an local disk-drive for easier access like the one offered by ZumoDrive and LiveDrive, however, the same can now be achieved by using free Windows utility - SkyDrive Explorer.

SkyDrive Explorer enables users to use SkyDrive online-storage like a local disk-drive attached to the computer, user's can perform all the actions as they are working on a local disk-drive including full drag-n-drop support and multi-operations like renaming objects or deleting a group of files/folders.
