Todays update brings a few changes to the filesystem integration, see
http://wua.la/Luzius/Documents/Wuala/...
The main change is that Wuala now shows a listing in the mounted network share and gets mounted as W: under windows. This enables accessing your files with your systems file browser. You have no write access (yet), but it might still be useful. Generally, the W: approach gives much better system integration, but only allows for a very limited feature set. What do you think? Do you like it? Do you prefer the Wuala browser window? When? When not?
I would like to suggest the following: Intergrate a function into wuala which allows it to directly synchronise one of its folder (or more at the dispense of the user) with the actual file system automatically.
As an illustration: I use FF A LOT meaning that I get approximately 5 useful bookmarks a day (most of which originate from stumble upon just like wuala originally did). Now I want to have a backup of those files ready in case my main PC crashes. However, I don't want to rely on my 24/7 online server harddrive for a backup but instead I want also to use Wuala for backing up my data. Now it is a tidious task to do that every day by hand so I suggest that a function which automizes this at a time interval chose by the user.
Hope you like the idea (and hopefully intergrate it soon)
Kind Regards
Darkstriker
PS: Alternatively you could emulate a virtual HDD to the system so that windows users could refer to their wuala space with (e.g.) H:\ and linux users could mount it as a hdd3 or something similar. I do, however, realize that that is not very feasable seeing the wanted system independence.
