Ubuntu One has got released for Windows. Ubuntu One is a cloudbased application that allows you to sync (and save to cloud) your selected files and folders between your Ubuntu PCs and.. ofcours from now on.. Windows PC's.

The personal cloud that brings your digital life together. For Windows XP, Vista and 7.

Ubuntu One is the personal cloud that brings your digital life together, so you can enjoy your content, your way, wherever you are. With our suite of cloud services including storage, sync, sharing and streaming - you have immediate access to your music collection, favorite photos, videos, important documents and more, at any time and from any device.

Ubuntu One is easy to install and easy to use – everyone gets our sync services and 5 GB of storage for free, and if you pay a little extra, you can add Music Streaming and Storage to suit your own needs.

Your personal cloud

Ubuntu One makes it easy to back up, sync and access your files, folders, photos and music from anywhere. Simply select which folders you want to sync to your personal cloud by adding them to the sync list. Ubuntu One will take care of the rest.

Access files from anywhere

Out and about or travelling the world? With Ubuntu One it's easy to access all your folders, files and photos wherever you are. You can manage your Ubuntu One personal cloud from any computer via the web or install Ubuntu One on additional computers. You can even access and share files and photos from your Android device. And, with our Music Streaming service, you can listen to your entire music collection on your Android or iPhone device too!

Share and collaborate

Need to collaborate on a presentation with colleagues? Want to share your holiday pictures with friends and family? Sharing with Ubuntu One is easy and secure. You can invite someone to share your files, or create a short link and post it to your social spaces like Facebook and Twitter.

Windows users will be using Live Mesh.
Ubuntu users will be using Ubuntu One.

I feel sad for Dropbox.

I stopped using Drop Box because they have said "Everything that you upload to us, we now own". Fuck that. Started using Minus. Will look in to this also :D

Probably a good bridge between Ubuntu and Windows.

We don't need Dropbox anymore.

If anyone of you get this problem:
"An exception representing an authentication failure"
when trying to sign in. Please report it to the link below so we can get an answer. Thanks :)

The windows installer for ubuntu-one does not permit signing-up to Ubuntu One: "the authentication failed". The Ask-Ubuntu forum does not provide a solution. Any solutions here?
