I came across this amazing service Bitcasa that provides you with unlimited cloud storage and that too for free. It is a start-up by 3 really smart guys. The technology stuffed into this system is also pretty amazing.
If you are interested already, sign up through this link so that I get a referral (Don't why I need this as all the space is for FREE!)
The files or folders you upload are basically form one of the following type:
And this is not because this is the cap on your account, its because this is the largest number the OS can show!
So what happens when you try to access those files in this INFINITE Folder?
Well even thought the files you see on your infinite folder are virtualized, you can still open them on your system without any problems. The data is brought onto your computer in real time. The founder was playing 2 HD movies simultaneously right from the cloud during his presentation. That's because the system can predict can automatically download the data in advance so that you can have an hassle free experience.

The files or folders you upload are basically form one of the following type:
1. Infinite:

2. Sync:
You know all about this so I wont be wasting your time on this. This basically means that you have a copy of the file, both on your computer and the cloud. But the good thing about this is that with Bitcasa you can sync unlimited data without any limits unlike some other services that only let you sync a limited amount of data even though you have paid for larger amount of space.3. Backup:
This is the category for all your permanent files. If you don't want to ever loose a file then keep them in here. It will keep a copy with you so that you can change and the other copy on the cloud that stays the same no matter what.Features of Bitcasa:
- Apart from the cool Infinite folder and the infinite sync Bitcasa also allow you to access almost all of your daily usage files like videos, pdf's, text files, music etc. right in you browser. No need to download the fie, just steam your whole Movie from the cloud just like your own Netflix or iTunes.
- You can even share the files and folders form both your Bitcasa account and even from your computer, all you need to do is just drag and drop any file or folder on the Send Tab and it will create a link that the other person can open up in browser.
- I know that most of you will not consider this a Feature but, it really is. Bitcasa is truly a cross platform service available on Windows, Mac and even Linux. They are even going to come up with app for iOS and Android.
