Onedrive update for mobile

There are more things to talk about the secure-ass services like the Onedrive and Outlook that will tell the fanboys of privacy invaders to shut the hell up. But enough of that, this update may include more features for the mobile version of Onedrive. However, not all versions may have the same features available in this update.
For Android version, you get to access the corporate and personal Onedrive storages in one app. For IOS version, you get the All Photos views where you can see all photos in a single view. Lastly, for Windows Phone 8.1, you should be able to access the Recycle Bin from the app although the Recycle Bin feature in cloud storage is completely kind of unncessary unless you may have deleted those online data accidentally.

OneDrive in Amazon Appstore

Hmm, I wonder if this is going to be some kind of security awareness spreadout type of the move or maybe a pointless move as even the Amazon services and devices are affected by some hidden security flaws as well but the Onedrive service already has the recently improved security that not even the professional cyber-spying agencies can penetrate easily. This being on IOS, Android and even Amazon devices doesn't seem to make things highly secure enough. Also, Onenote is available in Amazon smartphones or tablets as well.

OneDrive for Windows Phone

Windows Phone users, be glad that OneDrive is back, even more secure than better. Apparently, this is the last update for Windows Phone 7.5 while Windows Phone 8 and 8.1 are still on-going which still have some Windows 8 related backdoors that they still have to freaking fix them. I don't know if the next Windows OS will not have any single backdoors for better security and performance as this is something I may expect for future performance improvement. Until Windows 8 was released, I probably expected that all of the traces of Windows Vista technology should be changed completely for faster OS but another challange approached the hell out of Microsoft ever since last year as things were the complete disaster for Windows 8.
If there's Windows Phone 9 or something in the future that will be based on the next Windows OS, provided that there are no stupid backdoors everywhere, then, there will be a better person for IT security powered consumers to buy those phones with the secure Outlook and Onedrive apps.

More robust encryption support for Onedrive and Outlook

OK, a brave move from Microsoft and this may look like it is their first step. The next step will be to encrypt the other services like the Xbox Live, Windows Azure, Office 365 and even the Windows OSes. I don't know if the upcoming Windows 9 or perhaps the next update to Windows 8.1 will include the improved encryption for the OS as well as the encryption support for the Bitlocker which is already affected by the backdoor of the on-going illegal cyber-surveillance. The remaining problem is the CPU itself as some Intel technology that powers those CPUs is already affected by that similar backdoor as well even if Microsoft is already doing their best to respect their customers by then.
It surely took Microsoft before the year end to encrypt their services but then, this is just at the beginning. Try not to be cocky about this because we don't know if some dumbass will come crying to Microsoft for the data request again and especially that the other dumbasses will try to come up with a stupid law that will extend the power of the on-going spying which may challenge the hell out of Microsoft and other tech companies.
Bravos to Microsoft and if they can keep on protecting and respecting their customers' privacy this way by encrypting other services besides Onedrive and Outlook, then it may be a better reason to continue using them again. Not to mention that even Internet Explorer and Windows OSes should have the similar security as well.
The fight for internet freedom and privacy protection never ends. We will keep on blogging about this in addition to the upcoming products. That should keep this blog as active as ever unless some corrupted dumbass scares the hell out of us like blogging about something that goes against the internet freedom will land us in trouble.

OneDrive finally launched!

Now, check out the Automatic Camera Backup which basically uplaods the photos you have taken to the OneDrive. I don't know if this is similar to the Camera Uploads from Dropbox but I guess that it should be similar that way. It's just that you have to open the Camera section in the IOS version to allow the uploads to happen compared to other versions. Another feature is the video transcoding, which reduces the file footprint of a video that is being downloaded from Onedrive. I guess that there should be multiple video sizes for a video you want to download from.
However, since the launch of OneDrive today, it appears that they will add additional features in the future.

From Skydrive to OneDrive

Due to some branding infringement or whatever, they had decided to rename Skydrive to Onedrive. We don't know the new features for Onedrive at this moment but it seems that even Office 365 will have some improvements for their web apps known as Office Online. But having the name, Onedrive, is likely to make things worse. There are already cloud services with the word, one, such as Ubuntu One, One.com, etc. Calling that Micro-drive is not likely to make sense either like making the Microsoft cloud storage for users the tinyest looking storage of all containing 25GB-500GB. Like come on, this ain't the SSD or the SD-card inside the servers.
One.com already has their cloud drive service and it has been active for three years but I assume that the Skydrive service existed even ealier than One.com's cloud service. I don't know when did Dropbox first exist by the way but it may seem that Dropbox itself was a superior one than Skydrive back then before there was a desktop client for Skydrive two years ago.
