SkyDrive gives an amazing 25GB of free online cloud storage. That’s approximately 8000 photos, or around 5000 MP3s. You can use SkyDrive to backup your photographs or documents, or even make them public and share a folder with friends.
You control who can see your files online, set a folder to private and you can access it from any PC connected to the internet which makes it ideal for backing up files online. You can set a folder’s permissions to “public” or share it with individuals, meaning that you can securely share files with classmates, colleagues, friends and family.
Uploading your files to SkyDrive is easy – simply drag your files from your computer and drop them in to SkyDrive. You can then create multiple folders, set permissions, and send an invitation to your friends. Each file on SkyDrive has a unique URL that you can easily share with your contacts, making online file sharing simple.
Your SkyDrive works seamlessly with Windows Live Photos, making it easy to store and share your photos online, and even order prints.
