One of the only 2 web apps, and only Y-Combinator based app, that I pay for. Great work guys.

is it a web app?

It is and it isn't - you can use either the desktop client or web app by themselves, or use them together.

What other app do you pay for?

I got impressed that Dropbox works seamlessly in my Ubuntu Jaunty, it's much better that Ubuntu ONE. And I think the team behind have done a great job of engineering. Really awesome!

I'm going to chime in with the same note that always rings when dropbox get mentioned. This is such an impressive service.

This is the first time I've seen web interface since I first installed it and had a quick play. I just moved a folder which I thought might be useful to have online to dropbox & forgot about it (it'll come in handy sometime).

I loved the little games where I can earn more quota. Great idea and I'm sure it works magic. Dropbox, being so wonderfully invisible, are at a slight disadvantage. They don't get to talk to their customers very often. It's great to see what a great job they do when the opportunity presents.

Dropbox is what MobileMe should have started as.

Dropbox must be so popular with investors. It could be an important acquisition for so many massive companies. In each case that I can think of this would be an extremely smart thing for them to do.

Couldn't agree more regarding MobileMe/iDisk.

Dropbox is one of the most brilliant executions I've seen in a long time, and they continue to rock it. \m/

Standing ovation, the site redesign is gorgeous too.

I like the overall design changes, but the experience is notably slower. The site longer uses ajaxy tabs for navigation; now each tab is a separate page to load.

Dropbox is excellent. I wish they would allow us to type a file-mask that you don't want synced though.

We have to be carefull, lets wait if everyone sees this update or if its just techcrunch ;)

I love that completing all of the steps in "Getting Started" earns you an extra free 250MB of storage. Thanks guys!

Also, for those that rather read the Dropbox blog post about this, rather than the TC story: http://blog.getdropbox.com/?p=81

I'm more excited about the dropbox iphone app. When can we get that?
