Dropbox is a file hosting operated by Dropbox, Inc. that offers cloud strogae, file synchronization and client software. Dropbox allows users to create a special folder on each of their computers, which Dropbox then synchronises so that it appears to be the same folder (with the same contents) regardless of the computer it is viewed on.
