Google (NSDQ: GOOG) is planning an online file storage service, about the last one out of tons of others in the field. WSJ describes the “novelty” in some breathless detail. Says the story: “Along with a Web-based interface, Google is trying to let users upload and access files directly from their PC desktops and have the file storage behave for consumers more like another hard drive that is handy at all times.” Again, not new…many file storage services try to mirror the desktop directory structure.

Me, I store the files in GMail using Gspace.
