Send Files from the Web Directly to the Cloud Using Google's and Save to Drive

Send Files from the Web Directly to the Cloud Using Google's and Save to Drive

Hi all users, Google is making it easier to add files to your Google Drive and is sidestepping the desktop even more. You can now save images you find on the web and even entire web pages directly to Drive via the new Save to Drive Chrome extension.

Normally, something like this would require you to save an image to your local desktop and then upload it back to Google Drive.

But this doesn't make a lot of sense when both the source and the destination live online, you're only adding an unnecessary step to the process.

The extension makes it a lot easier to grab anything from the web and save it in your Drive account. After you save a file, you'll immediately be able to open the file in Drive, rename it or go to the Drive file list.

It works for images well, but it also works to any link to files. If all you want is to save a file to Google Drive, there's no need to save it locally anymore.

What's more, if you need the file on another device, it's also a simple way of sending it directly to it.

Along with the extension, Google also revamped the image viewer in Drive. The viewer has a couple more options now, like the ability to scroll to zoom or comment on sections.

Enjoy.......
