Ubuntu One, good chose?
This weekend i got my Ubuntu One invitation.
I was eager to install it, for the installation on my jaunty machine it was a easy just follow this guide, the karmic machine wasn’t that easy to install you have to:
Add the sources manually the sources.list:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntuone/beta/ubuntu karmic main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntuone/beta/ubuntu karmic main
Installed it with this command:
sudo apt-get install ubuntuone-client
Now that was the installation part, which was simple.
But as I started to use it I noticed it was slow in syncing the files I have but in the Ubuntu One folder, not fully using my bandwith. As I would then directly compare with dropbox the same files took less time then with Ubuntu One. Since the PC is running 24/7 I don’t have an issue with the speed only you could point out, you can’t place something in the folder in a hurry.
For the rest I’ll stick to Ubuntu One since it’s easyer to install and I’m an Ubuntu user. Which I think makes Ubuntu One the default chose? right?.
If you reader could point out why Ubuntu One is a good chose, let me know.
