Hey Writers Check This Out!

Posted on | September 28, 2007 |

At first when I read about this site, I was unsure on how it suits me. Then like a bolt of lightening it dawned on me- writing. The site is called driveway.com and it’s only mission is file sharing I know this sounds a little scary but let me tell how this is beneficial to writers. Awhile ago I sent my dad a story to look over andmake any necessary edits.

He uses regular MS word and I use MS Works Word Processor. So I had to change the format so he could read the text and vise-versa. Not a problem just a pain in the butt. Well with driveway.com I can upload my file and send the link to my dad and he can come buy and look at it and even edit it from right there on the website.

This is really ideal for really large files. My story was short so it was okay to send as an attachment in my yahoo email. What if I wrote a novel, that is a huge file and I found a writing partner or someone interested in editing my novel online. This would be perfect way for my partener to read the novel and make changes with out sending several email attachments.

You can upload a file size off 500 MB and have a storage space of 2 GB. There are a variety of ways to enhance your experience, downloading a desktop widget, a plug-in, or a web widget. Editing came done using standard Microsoft office applications.

So writers, looking to have your grandma who lives 3 states from you look at your novel, or that writing partner in another country then check out
