[…] Omnidrive also has sharing features and opened its platform for developers to build other products and tools for (open APIs). We’ve just noticed they’re opening up the service to anyone who signs up, with a 1GB free account. […]

Looks good, and looking forward to trying it out. Bit disappointed that it’s $40gb for only 10gb though, with no option to pay extra for more storage. It would be nice to see a package where users could get 25gb for about $50-$60/year. But, overall, good work! Good luck with the launch

I waited till 12:30 am, but did not see any user sign up link. Is the launch being delayed?

[…] On the subject of backups though, just found out from Techcrunch that Omnidrive have announced their launch, and Omnidrive have said on their blog that they will open the floodgates tomorrow and start accepting registrations. It’s going to be free for 1gb of space, and $40 per year for 10gb. Bit disappointing, as I’d like to see more space, not least because my backup size on Carbonite is 25gb! I’ll probably give it a whirl though as it does seem more feature packed than Carbonite. […]
