There are a lot of hacks that allow us to save our files on GMail. They range from Shell extension to all kinds of softwares that do this. But the easiest option that I have seen so far is the super cool firefox addon GSpace.
Gspace turns the 2.8GB+ of your Gmail account into free online storage. With Gspace you can manage unlimited Gmail accounts to store all type of files within its simple, user friendly interface.
Listen your favourite stored music directly from your Gspace, view your collections of pictures and manage your Gdrive files as well.
Using GSpace is as simple as saying 1-2-3..
- Once you have installed Gspace, open your Firefox browser. To access Gspace go to: Tools > Gspace. The Gspace console will appear on screen.
- Manage your Gmail accounts. You can set up as many as you want. Remember that each one provides 2.8Gb of storage.
- Login to any of your Gmail accounts.
- Gspace console is divided in 4 key areas for you to manage your files: My Computer / My Gspace / Transfers / Status.
- Enjoy Gspace features:
- File Transfer: to manage files
- Player Mode: to listen your stored music files directly from Gspace
- Photo Mode: to view your collection of pictures
- Gmail Drive: to manage your Gdrive files as well
On a small note of Warning Do not upload/download many files in a single day. You may get your account blocked for 24 houres. It seems that, this happens if more than 1GB of data is transferred in a single day.
So go ahead and install the GSpace addon and bask in its glory.
