FILE SHARING

            The Internet allows us to download and upload large amounts of data. There are various online
            file-sharing services, like Dropbox and Google Drive, available on the Internet that allow us to
            share documents, data, audio and videos on the cloud rather than storing the data locally on
            our secondary storage devices.

            Google Drive is a cloud storage service developed by Google. It provides up to 15 GB
            of free safe storage space. We can store data online so that it can be accessed from
            anywhere. It also provides tools for sharing with other users easily over the Internet.
            We can store files on Google Drive and send links to other users to share the content.
