GMail Drive is a Shell Namespace Extension that creates a virtual drive in the Windows Explorer, allowing you to use your Google GMail account as a storage media.

It allows you to do basic file manipulation, such as copy and delete, on files inside the GMail folder. Because it is a Shell Extension, the interface you work in is Windows Explorer itself.

GMail files are physically stored as e-mails on your Google GMail account. The files are stored in mail attachments, and the filename and file information (such as filesize) is stored in the message subject line.

GMail Drive has already been installed on your computer. All you need to do now, is to browse to the GMail Drive entry under your My Computer folder in the Windows Explorer.

Work more than great with some limitations like file name. Right now I'm thinking of opening Gmail account for ebook storage (e.g. MS Press) and upload the books under an ISBN name and leaving the list.  Few things need to be done.

1. Rename files just to ISBN numbers
2. Compress files (split) to 7MB parts
3. Test with few files

Idea is simple, members can look up the list and mods can mail to any user from any gmail account  :rolleyes:
