Dropbox 1.0 Finally Released 307
Zack writes "Dropbox has finally released version 1.0. The new version comes with hundreds of bug fixes, including invalid file names on Windows, weird Unicode normalizations, Word and Excel file locking, abnormal symlinks hierarchies, and case sensitive file systems on Mac. It also adds TrueCrypt support, a Rainbow Shell that offers support for extended attributes, selective sync, a new installation wizard, and reduces resource usage."
Dropbox folder (Score:1, Interesting)
The one thing I don't like about Dropbox (which is why I use Syncplicity) is that one must drop one's files into the Dropbox folder. This becomes a problem because it creates a duplicate of the file which just seems to waste space.

The dropbox home page has a huge, prominent video right in the middle of the page. Did you try watching that? It explains pretty well what it does.
This is true, but a single paragraph could have done the same for those of us that resist clicky-clicky on long-winded promotional multi-media (especially when a single paragraph would have done the job...).
