Hackszine reader Abhay Krishna wrote in about a cool Firefox plugin that allows you to drag and drop files into your Gmail account.

This extension allows you to use your Gmail Space (2.8 GB and growing) for file storage. It acts as an online drive, so you can upload files from your hard drive and access them from every Internet capable system. The interface will make your Gmail account look like a FTP host.

It’s an everywhere-accessible 2.8GB hard disk!

One thing to note is that Gmail accounts sometimes get blocked for 24 hours if excessive amounts of data are being transferred. Because of this, it’s recommended that you don’t transfer more than 1GB/day to any particular account. There’s no reason why you couldn’t use a few accounts for different purposes, however.
