MY VIDEO COMMENT


In the following video you can hear the song "California Dreamin" sung by the group "The Mamas & The Papas, a vocal group leader in the 60's. 


For me has special value because it is a song that I sing in my group of soul and I think that  represents a great vocal song for four voices. Generally what we see are the four singers of the group(JohnPhillips, Denny Doherty, Michelle Phillips and Cass Elliot) playing the song .

Only comment that it was good music in those times although we do not seem so. It's a song in English with a lot of rhythm. I like it and that's an other reason why I hang this video on my blog, because you can enjoy it.

While Dropbox functions as a storage service, focuses on sync and share files. It supports revision history, so that files deleted from the Dropbox folder can be recoveredfrom any computer synchronized. There is also functionality to know the history of a file you are working, allowing a person to edit and upload the files without danger of losingto previous versions. The history of the files is limited to a period of 30 days, although there is a paid version that offers unlimited history. The record uses delta encodingtechnology. 



To conserve bandwidth and time, if a file into a Dropbox folder of a user ischanged, Dropbox only uploads the file shares that are exchanged when synchronizing.Although the desktop client has no restrictions on file sizes, files loaded through the website are limited to a maximum of 300 MB each. Dropbox uses the Amazon S3 storage to save files and SoftLayer Technologies for support infrastructure.
