FTPish tool for Gmail file upload :: now for mac!

I use my GMail account for file transfer and storage quite often, and was delighted to find out about the GMail Drive file extension a while back. Problem is, I could use it only with a windows PC (at work). If you are a windows user, you may want to check out Engadget's How-To.

Now there is an option (and dare I say far slicker!) for Mac users: gDisk. It's perfect when you don't have a usb drive handy, or want to be able to access your files from anywhere, on the internet. I'm going to create a new GMail account specifically for this purpose.

Once you create a directory, gDisk will upload the file(s) to your Drafts folder and create a label to match:

Eeeeeexcellent : )
