On the internet we have seen that there are different types of file storage services on the cloud (in " cloud "), that is, online spaces reachable from all over the world, whatever computer you use, where you can store your files. Among these, the best free examples are Google Drive, DropBox and other cloud drives such as Box.net and pCloud.
In addition to these there are also social networks and web applications, where, always with "cloud" technology, it is possible to create and copy files and, in some cases, photos.
Among these sites we have Facebook, Google Photos and Flickr to create online photo albums and then Google Docs to store online documents and Youtube for videos.
In short, all these cloud services can be used together in a unified way, integrating them into a single portal or even to view and manage files and photos from your computer .

These services are mostly free and free so those who want more storage space on sites like DropBox or SugarSync can also have more than one account.
To solve the problem of file dispersion in multiple cloud services, you need to find a way to manage Dropbox, Google Docs and Sugarsync files from a single management panel and also have the ability to search and upload photos to Facebook, Picasa ( Google+) and Flickr, directly from the pc .
For these two objectives there are two new really comfortable and innovative services that I recommend to use according to your needs.
1) Otixo is a service to subscribe to unify the various cloud storage sites and access the stored files, from one place (no longer free)
Basically, if you have one or more accounts on Dropbox, SugarSync, Box.net, Amazon S3, Google Docs and others, you can unify them all together on the interface of the Otixo site.
To do this, just associate the various accounts by providing the login credentials only once (name and password of the various sites such as Dropbox).
From Otixo, which works a bit like a resource explorer, all the folders of files uploaded to the internet appear and it becomes as easy as you do on Windows, move them from one service to another, copy and organize them with drag and drop.
Otixo supports FTP, so it can also be used directly to transfer files from any FTP server to Google Docs, DropBox or Amazon S3 without problems, using a program to create an FTP server like FileZilla.
The best part of Otixo, however, is that, all the folders created on the various unified cloud services and integrated all together, can also be viewed and managed directly from Windows or Mac, without having to download any programs.
To do this, just open Windows Explorer, go to " Computer ", right click on the blank and add a new network location .
The address is //app.otixo.com/webdav while the name and password are those registered for the Otixo account.
After connecting this network drive, you will be able to see a new hard disk in My Computer, which contains all the associated folders .
So you can use your Dropbox, SugarSync, Box.net, Amazon, Google docs, MobileMe and other services all together from Windows to upload, delete, move and edit files from the network folder that can be configured on any computer, Windows or Mac, connected to the internet.
Otixo also offers a unified file search to quickly find all the files scattered across multiple cloud services.
Otixo recently opened subscription plans so, with the free version, it can only be used to exchange data up to 2 GB each month.
2) Koofr is a site similar to Otixo to unify different services such as Google Drive, Onedrive, Dropbox and Amazon Drive.
To start using the service, click on the Sign Up button to register an account and download the program.
The interface asks to connect the other Cloud accounts by entering the access data and authorizing the application.
You can access the files, photos, videos and anything else contained in one of the services listed above from any computer and in any browser.
You can also search for all files through the various services.
3) Picbackman is a program that backs up photos on all the various Cloud services together, connecting to your accounts.
It supports Flickr, Facebook, Instagram, Google Picasa, Dropbox, SmugMug, Box.net and SkyDrive.
Just select the folder of images that will be saved online on all the serivizi you want, at once.
4) With DropboxAutomator you can transfer photos from Facebook to Dropbox to create an automatic copy .
The free service also works with Google Drive, Onedrive and other Cloud services.
5) MultCloud to transfer files from one cloud drive to another is a website from which you can open, in a single interface, all the files saved online in the various cloud services such as Google Drive, Onedrive, Dropbox and others.
6) Cloudfuze (ex Joukuu) is an application that allows you to connect and unify the various cloud services in order to view photos and files from the same page.
