I am just wondering if anyone has used WEBDAV (Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning) for remote storage over HTTP, and if so what their thoughts were on the technology.
For those that don’t know about the subject, here is a link to the topic http://www.sambar.com/syshelp/webdav.htm.
The opportunity to separate your personal files from your PC by putting them in a data store that is accessible from anywhere with an internet connection is quite compelling. With web services, application service providers and WEBDAV, the way in which we manage and access our data and applications will change drastically.
This will eventually allow anyone with a web enabled PDA to have the same capabilities as someone with a laptop. No longer will it matter what computer you are sitting in front of, your applications a data are just a click away.
Let me know what you think….How far are we from this becoming a reality?
