I think Microsoft is a little late to this game with everything that Google offers, but I’m sure they will still get their users because the Microsoft user base is so large.

I gotta agree Listikal, but I’ll add that I don’t think there’s a #1 player in the online storage market yet so I think with some hard work, Microsoft could carve out a little space for themselves.

I’m glad that gallery service is available for India. There are very less companies who actually target Indian audience while launching the product!
