… if the Web2.0 Prom was really the Launchpad portion of the Web2.0 Summit, that is (And Sharpcast would, I suppose, be the Queen).
If we had to anoint a winner of Launch Pad, we’d pick Omnidrive. Sharpcast’s presentation hit several snafus. Omnidrive offers something similar; it saves to Omnidrive online when you save things on your desktop. The data from multiple sources gets saved all to one place. It also gives you a folder that shows you all your files from different services like Flickr. You can drag and drop files into the Flickr folder and they will be uploaded to Flickr as well.
Well, its always good to know that our own review was validated last week! And it looks like in spite of the few snafu’s during my own test drive, it seems like they ironed everything out in time for their presentations. Omnidrive showed a helluva lot of promise — in particular, look for their open API’s – so congratulations to Nick, Jessica and all the crew over at Omnidrive.
For all of those interested, the public beta opens this thursday at 0001h Pacific Standard time to test drive the system yourself.
I guess Omnidrive *IS* ready for primetime after all. ;)
