iCloud Adds File Sharing Capabilities

Back in April, Swedish startup Xcerion launched the public beta-test of iCloud, a web-based desktop available to anyone with an Internet connection and proposing a set of productivity, developer, media and communications applications.

Now Xcerion is taking its online service dedicated to free storage, backups, and apps a step further by adding file sharing and other new community features.

The service offers 3 GB of storage space and 50 free applications and widgets, such as word processing, mail, music, video, instant messaging, games, collaboration, and development tools. iCloud supports both Internet Explorer and Firefox browsers.

These recent additions include file sharing functions, support for publishing files reaching 150 MB, and contact imports. iCloud provides an easy file manager and a photo application which allows users to organize images and share slideshows with friends and family.

Another great improvement of iCloud is its expansion of language support – the service now includes also Dutch, Danish, French, Italian, Norwegian, Romanian, Portuguese, Lithuanian, and Polish.
