Unlike most people, I am a fan of change. I rarely get upset when a company decides to change a program I am accustomed to. With that said, when it comes to education I admit I am a bit of a dinosaur. I generally keep to the basics in terms of educational tools; my pen, my paper, and-as of recently-my laptop, so when someone asks me about an online tool that has assisted my education I honestly draw blanks. The only exception to this is most certainly dropbox, a very useful tool I was only recently introduced to. You see dropbox allows me to access any files I have stored in it on any computer in the world, all you need is internet access and you're set. I can't count the number of times I or a friend of mine has had to take a taxi cab to rush back home because we forgot a file on our computer at home. There's a reason dropbox has over a billion uploads per day[1]. It really has changed the way I handle my school work.
