Send files to Google Drive via EMAIL

Well, this morning I realised that my work IT department has disabled the uploading or downloading of attachments to my Gmail address. So I decided to do a little digging into sending some files (albeit small) files to my Google Drive account.

To my surprise, Google Drive doesn't natively support email upload of files (strangely enough it supports email upload with Google Drive to Youtube provided you have activated that function).

By the way do you know you can also send email (and attachments) to Evernote, Picasa, Facebook and Twitter?

And so the power of the internet (as I discussed yesterday) is such that someone out there will spent his/her precious time making a useful program that will do exactly that. It's called Email It In. What it does is exactly in the words. Email your attachements to your Cloud storage account. Be it Google or Dropbox.

Now that's what I call, "Bringing the E back to Email".

I distinctly remember my trip back to wish my father goodbye and how emotional I was because I knew that somehow I will not see him for a long while. I remember the bus trip back to Yaounde and how surreal it all felt (especially since there was a job interview lined up in Munich). Me on the bus (in the middle of nowhere) on my way back to Yaounde. Clearly I was too excited to sleep (like someone next to me). I was already missing my lovely Cameroon. On the news, the coronavirus (covid-19) was beginning to show its ugly head in Italy and various other neighbouring countries. My aunt even told me to postpone my trip, but it was too late. I was already packed. Don't mess with a black man and his luggage! Me, mysel...

Awesome #camping. The great #outdoor #country #goodliving #instaphoto #life2full I must say we're a bit rusty as I almost forgot the tent and forgot to bring a long enough extension cord. My lovely wife @kantue packed cheese but only brought a plastic butter knife. #letthegoodtimesroll via Instagram http://ift.tt/1AzRUNf
