SUGARSYNC LAUNCHES ‘UPLOAD BY EMAIL’; ADDS NEW 500 GB STORAGE PLAN
Feb 24, 2010 Apps, Deals, Technology
Email attachments can now sync instantly to multiple computers and smartphones in one easy step
SAN MATEO, CALIF., February 24, 2010 – Sugarsync
Inc., makers of the award-winning Sugarsync
digital sync, backup and sharing service, today unveiled Upload by Email, a new feature designed to dramatically simplify the process of syncing email attachments to a user’s SugarSync ecosystem of computers and smartphones.
The new feature enables a Sugarsync user to sync any email attachment to a dedicated folder in their SugarSync account by simply forwarding it to a special email address. Instantly, the file(s) is available on all synced devices.
“It’s our goal to make your data always available at your fingertips,” said Laura Yecies, chief executive officer at SugarSync. “Upload by Email eliminates the need to download attachments and re-save them. We’re happy to add another way to make sync your most important files easier and more transparent.”
For example, if a user receives an email with many attachments, they can simply forward it to their unique Sugarsync email address (comprised of random numbers and letters for spam protection). All attachments will transfer to their SugarSync account – available on all of their devices immediately. This is much easier than downloading attachments one-by-one.
A user could also provide the unique email address to trusted friends and family or colleagues to upload photos or other documents directly to their PC. The email address can be easily changed from within Sugarsync at any time.
Upload by Email is also a particularly valuable tool to sync a file while traveling. If a user sees an important attachment arrive in their inbox via any mobile phone with email or on a Web-based service, they can forward the email to the unique address. Next time they log into their computer, the attachment will be there, ready and waiting.
Lastly, many business users are plagued by limits to e-mail account sizes. With Upload by E-Mail, a user can forward the attachment and then delete the original e-mail to keep an account under pre-set limits.
For added security, SugarSync will scan all file attachments for viruses prior to syncing, and certain file types are not accepted (e.g., .exe, .cmd, .bat) to prevent malicious files from landing in an account.
SugarSync Raises Storage to 500 GB
The company also unveiled a new 500 GB SugarSync Plan ($39.99/mo, or $399/year USD introductory price). Previously, the highest level of storage available was 250 GB.
“The rate with which we consume gigabits is only increasing,” said Yecies. “Smartphones, with picture and video-taking capabilities, and streaming media services are only adding to this data explosion. As a result, we’ve had many requests for higher-storage accounts. We’re very happy to formalize this plan at an attractive introductory price for power users everywhere.”
Continued Yecies, “SugarSync can easily scale to support larger amounts of data while maintaining the level of control only found with our selective sync technologies. This is critical, because many new devices today, especially netbooks and tablets, are designed with limited local storage. Customers with large amounts of data need to be able to mix-and-match their folder syncing to maximize their storage and have offline access to important files.”
Sugarsync is a flexible syncing and online backup service providing always-connected consumers and busy professionals a powerful way to organize, manage, share and access all their files on-the-go, instantly and securely from any Mac, PC or mobile device.
Sugarsync supports virtually all computer and smartphone operating systems, including Windows, Mac, Android, iPhone, Blackberry, and WinMo. This breadth of support ensures that users can choose to work from virtually any device from any location.
About SugarSync:
SugarSync is a powerful sync, sharing and backup solution ideal for busy professionals and digitally-connected consumers. It enables users to access documents, photos and music across all of their devices, including desktops, laptops and smart phones. The company was founded in 2004 and is headquartered in San Mateo, California.

BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) Best Practices: Six Tips
Feb 4, 2010 Tips & Tricks
I came across this little doozy of gem online on the CIO website. Al Sacco covers six good tips about using the BBM on your device that you might not have considered. Perhaps my favorite is the “Do not abuse the broadcast message feature”.
I was surprised to see the part about not broadcasting your PIN on public forums like twitter and FB, as thats a common way to hook up with your friends, but he does have a good point. Its all about keeping the spam down (much like you don’t post your full email address in public either). Anyway, take a look at the Post and let me know if you have anything you’d like to add to the list.

Personalize your Blackberry case!
Jan 5, 2010 Accessories
This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Pexagon Technology. All opinions are 100% mine.
I’m always on the look out for a good way to protect my blackberry. I had an otterbox case on my last one and it server well (too well infact, I went through two cases!). I’ve looked at cases from Casemate, I’ve looked at otterbox, I’ve checked out the cheap cases I can get at wal-mart or target. None of them have made a big impression on me. Yet. Enter Pexagon.
Pexagon wants to make my device a little more personal by adding a bit of personality to it for a mere $5. Yea. Five Bucks. BlackBerry cases come in the silicone design for most popular models! The backside of the case can be engraved with BOTH a logo and two lines of text. Again, let us repeat … you can engrave a logo for ONE piece … AND engrave text. Absolutely no setup charge and no order minimums. Order one case, engrave a logo, engrave your name and have it shipped for $5!
Thats a pretty good deal and one thats hard to beat anywhere else. You can get personalized Apple & BlackBerry cases with your name and school logo or your company name and logo.
You can get cases for the following BlackBerry Smartphones:
- BlackBerry® Curve™ 8300
- BlackBerry® Curve™ 8900
- BlackBerry® Bold™ 9000
- BlackBerry® Tour™ 9630
So why not check them out today?
