Box.net is your personal online space (or box) where you can
store your documents, photos, music files, video clips, and more! By storing
your important files online in a safe and secure environment, you are ensuring
long term protection and limitless access of your data. background Box.net
was founded in the summer of 2004, with the following principles in mind:
Provide users with a low-cost, easy to use, service to keep their important
files safe and accessible. A group of Seattle entrepreneurs decided that modern
storage devices such as CDs, Zip Disks, USB Drives, and DVDs were burdensome to
the average computer user, and that there must be a much easier and more
economical way of storing files. The ubiquity of broadband internet access in
America makes online file storage an available, reliable and efficient method of
storing and transferring files. At Box.net, we provide users with the ability
to access files from desktop computers and laptops, and cross-platform
compatibility allows devices such as PocketPCs, SmartPhones, Palm Organizers,
and other wireless handheld devices to share data and information. |
