Pay for more Google Gigabytes
In an official blog post Google described their new solution. “As someone who tests Google products daily, I know that the simplest solution is often the one that works best. In the case of online storage, whether it's a picture, a video or an email, you should just, well, be able to store it without having to worry about whether you've got enough space in each particular product,” says Google.
“That's why the Picasa team is pleased to tell you that in a few hours we'll be rolling out extra storage that you can purchase to use across several Google products (today, Picasa Web Albums and Gmail; soon, other applications like Google Docs & Spreadsheets). That will help make storage really useful, like letting you upload lots of full resolution images to Picasa Web Albums.”
When you reach the limit of free storage – 1GB for Picasa Web Albums, 2.8GB for Gmail – Google says that you should consider this’ your overflow solution’. Plans start at $20/year for 6GB, with larger plans ranging up to 250GB.
