Slept through Google’s storage surge
Another day, definitely at an earlier time of day, I may go into my history of examining the “cloud” related to the storage of photos for sharing and secondary backup. For now, I just want to express my pleasant surprise at a Google announcement that came nearly two weeks ago. In a post at their official blog and cross-posted on the Picasa team’s blog, Google announced that they were providing “twice as much storage for a quarter of the old price.” So, from $20/year for 6GB to $5/year for 20GB or under a full utilization standpoint, from just under 28¢/GB/month to to just barely over 2¢/GB/month. This change dramatically shifts Picasa Web Albums rank in my internal cloud storage rankings. I haven’t yet decided how it’ll impact my workflow but it does require me to reach out to a number of friends and update my recommendations. I wonder how I missed this news initially. I may need to revisit my feed reader practices.
