How to Use Dropbox

Copyright © 2013 TheUltimateDreamVA.wordpress.com

1

Remember that time you needed your USB Flash Drive but forgot to bring it with you?

Copyright © 2013 TheUltimateDreamVA.wordpress.com

2

Or that time when you misplaced your USB?

3

Good thing you saved your files in your laptop!

Copyright © 2013 TheUltimateDreamVA.wordpress.com

4

But what if your laptop suddenly crashed?!

Copyright © 2013 TheUltimateDreamVA.wordpress.com

5

No problem. You must have emailed the important files to yourself, right?

Copyright © 2013 TheUltimateDreamVA.wordpress.com

6

Noooo???

7

That’s scary huh!

Copyright © 2013 TheUltimateDreamVA.wordpress.com

8

So just imagine this…

Copyright © 2013 TheUltimateDreamVA.wordpress.com

9

Imagine yourself having a storage device

Copyright © 2013 TheUltimateDreamVA.wordpress.com

10

That enables you to drop any file into it. Yes, in a designated folder.

Copyright © 2013 TheUltimateDreamVA.wordpress.com

11

Imagine yourself being able to access those files anytime wherever you are.

12

And I mean, 24/7…whether you’re at home, out with friends, or on vacation in Boracay.

13

Wouldn’t that be awesome?

Copyright © 2013 TheUltimateDreamVA.wordpress.com

14

Well, thanks to the man who repeatedly forgot his USB Flash Drive while he was a student at MIT.

Copyright © 2013 TheUltimateDreamVA.wordpress.com

15

He conceived the idea of creating such a storage device!

16

Who is he?

You can put your stuff in Dropbox and get to it from your computers, phones or tablets. Wherever you are.

Edit docs, automatically add photos, and show off videos from anywhere.

Copyright © 2013 TheUltimateDreamVA.wordpress.com

It is safe and secure. Even if your phone goes for a swim, your stuff can be restored in a snap.

29

Dropbox secures your file with encryption and two-step verification.
