Google Drive Said To Launch Next Week

The Next Web reported that they got a draft release from one of Google's official Drive partner, and received a few titillating details about the Google Drive service. Earlier reports shows that Google Drive will launches within this year. And now, 5 GB of free storage, likely come on next week, probable on Tuesday or Wednesday at http://drive.google.com (going to the website still receiving 404 error now).

If Google plans to take on the incumbent Dropbox, it is no surprise that it will roll out for free with 5 GB storage (Dropbox's free storage is 2GB). Besides, Google Drive will work "in desktop folders" on both Mac and Windows computers (but they did not tell about the details of operation).
