It used to be Windows Live SkyDrive. SkyDrive has been radically redesigned in the same way Windows 8 has been reimagined. Your online storage maps to a single folder on your PC, Mac, or mobile device. Whatever you put in there can be accessed online via any browser and optionally synced to other PCs using a Windows utility that Microsoft finally released last week.
The fact that it finally syncs with Windows and other platforms makes it practically a brand-new service and worth a strong look. See the entire SkyDrive gallery beginning here. Google Drive is brand new. So new, in fact, that Google is still restricting access to it. You have to click a request to get your Google Drive, and—for now—you have to wait a day or more before you can actually sign in.

There are, of course, other online storage options besides these three. Got a lot of devices to charge up? Suffering from charger clutter?

SkyDrive enables this feature that otherwise requires a sharepoint server and the full professional versions of Microsoft Office. Group members are allowed to access, create, modify and delete files within the group's SkyDrive folders, as well as other functionalities that SkyDrive provides.
It is possible to subscribe to RSS feeds of the content of public folders. The feeds contain preview images of the added files—either a thumbnail of an image or an icon representing the file type—and links to the file download pages. Wikimedia Foundation.

It's pretty much just storage. If you need more than 25GB, you'll need to look elsewhere because what you get for free is all you get in general. Additionally, while you do have 25GB of space, you only have 50MB per file. If you want to upload a file larger than 50MB you're out of luck, which is a big disadvantage for the service. SkyDrive is essentially 25GB of storage—for free.
