I searched, looks like we don't have a thread for Dropbox referrals

For those who do not know what Dropbox is, it is a free service that allows you to backup, sync, share your files. It is very useful to keep multiple computers/laptops/cellphones synched. It works with iPhone/Android etc..

Post here with your referral link and the number of referrals left, and I will edit the main thread to reflect the same. Once you're done, post here and remove your link and I'll post the link of the next person who is up.

Using the referral gives you additional 250Mb, and also to the referrer (500 Mb if you have an edu email ID). Here's my link to begin with.

Current active link : *db.tt/5KAvgmB
Note: To calculate the referrals left, use: (max - current)/250 (or 500)

Tip: If you use Ubuntu, create a softlink from you Documents folder to Dropbox folder, if you use Windows 7, move you "My Documents" to "My Dropbox", and access your documents anywhere.

You'll find it useful! This is one of the things that once you start using, you can't imagine doing without it. I'm actually considering their subscription.

I didn't quite got the referral funda!
I already have a drop box account. Should I make another one following the link above?

And can't anyone make more than one dropbox account for storing more data? :confused:

Every dropbox user have a referal link. If someone use that link to register to dropbox, you'll get 250MB Extra. Anyway by default they provide 2GB(FREE), which is enough I guess.

And as for your 2nd query, I don't think one can register two a/c with same email.

Dropbox has become part of my everyday computing life and I'm not sure how I managed without it. I use it for backing up files I'm currently working on, syncing to my other computers and devices, collaborating with others and sharing files with others.

Here's my referral link if you want to give it a try with some free bonus space:
