Over the next few weeks, Google is rolling out the capability to upload all file types to the cloud through Google Docs, giving you one place where you can upload and access your key files online. Because Google Docs now supports files up to 250 MB in size, which is bigger than the attachment limit on most email applications, you’ll be able to backup large graphics files, RAW photos, ZIP archives and much more to the cloud. More significantly, instead of carrying a USB drive, you can now use Google Docs as a more suitable option for accessing your files on different computers.

This feature can also assist you work with teams to organize and collaborate on information online. For example, a designer can share large schematic files with her construction firm, while a P.T.A. member can share large graphic files for posters with other members. You can still add these files to the same shared project folder your team has previously been using to collaborate on documents and spreadsheets.

In addition to uploading any file into Google Docs, Google Apps Premier Edition customers will be able to effortlessly upload many files at once and sync them with their desktop in real time using third party applications. You can read more about how the capability to upload any file will help businesses on the Google Enterprise blog.
