SkyDrive’s new interface is cool!

I may be talking about old news here, but anyway, you may not have seen this yet.

It seems that SkyDrive (not to be confused with SkyNet from Terminator) from Windows Live has a new and very much improved upload interface. It’s possible to drag and drop files on an area on the page instead of doing the standard “Click on the Browse button” thing.

I think people got bored playing with new beach ball that was showing in the previous version. Also something that was lacking, was showing the upload progress. It could have timed out, you simply didn’t know. Now, there’s a nice upload progress, showing you how far your upload is.

I'm woundering when they will merge Windows SkyDrive and Live Mesh. I'd like to have the 25 GB of SkyDrive and the sync functionality from Mesh :)

Either way: nice job from MS again, makes it all more usable!
