Editor's review of Gspace
5.0 stars
- "Turn Gmail into Gspace"
Gspace is a Firefox extension that takes the small pile of gigabytes that the Google folks give you for your Gmail account and turns them into a drive with storage and music-playing capabilities.
Accessible via a toolbar button or from the menu bar, the extension opens a new tab with an FTP-style interface. You can transfer files by highlighting them and hitting the directional arrow. Drag and drop is not available, but the plug-in is still replete with goodies. Uploading a file sends an e-mail with it attached to your Gmail. By creating an appropriate filter and folder, it can be quite easy to keep track of the files you've uploaded. Deleting the file from Gspace deletes the e-mail.
Gspace also allows users to switch between different Gmail accounts, has an Inbox button so you can quickly jump back to the standard Gmail interface, and supports different uses of the virtual drive. These include a Music mode, which can be used with a Flash music player to create a Web-based MP3 player, and a Photo mode, which can be used for displaying photos--although it didn't work for us.
Additional features include help buttons and a status bar that tells you which account you're using and the amount of space used. Gspace also can show you files uploaded with GMail Drive, a similar program, although those files aren't accessible from Gspace. Highly recommended.

Version: Gspace 0.5.94
"The perfect way to get your GMail account cancelled."
Cons: If you're looking for Google to zap your Gmail account (and any messages/files you have in it) I highly recommend Gspace.
It's perfect for violating those Google TOS agreements!

"In response to previous comment...."
Pros: Is this the clause you were trying to cite from the Gmail TOS? Read it closely....It says you can't upload illegal or controversial content, nor can you upload anything that belongs to someone else.
Cons: . So how is using this extension to, say, upload family pics, or some tunes for a web based MP3 player, going to violate those terms? Think BEFORE you speak next time.
Summary: You shall not, shall not agree to, and shall not authorize or encourage any third party to: (i) use the Service to upload, transmit or otherwise distribute any content that is unlawful, defamatory, harassing, abusive, fraudulent, obscene, contains v... read more >>
