CNET - “A Truly Revolutionary Idea…Call it Intelligent Storage…An All-Inclusive Operating System.”

 

Inside and out, the software/service, which officially launched today, represents a glimpse into a future where all of us can share media and data instantly, securely, and well, effortlessly from any web browser.

 

While it starts with the fun and hyper-intuitive interface, the real revolution starts with the backend. Once you upload your media files, real-time transcoding of any format of digital photos, music, and video files allows the system to feel very desktop-like to the end user. Conveniences like instant video streams, no matter what media player you have installed, instant template-base blogs and webpages, and an intuitive yet powerful interface that displays your media as thumbnails (video thumbnails actually play onscreen as soon as you login). Call it "intelligent storage."

 

In a nutshell, Glide offers users a secure and intuitive platform for storing and sharing media files, e-mail, Web sites, documents -- pretty much any file that you would want access to on any Internet-enabled computer. Throw in an array of personal contacts, interactive video chats, and you've got an all-inclusive "operating environment."

 

But the magic that drives Glide is a real-time transcoding technology that allows you (and others) to access data on any computer or platform, and now on many portable devices.

Summary:

 

“Thanks to Glide’s format-agnostic transcoding tech -- it definitely fills a hole in the mobile world. The ability to preview, download, and upload files, and even send as much as 40GB of data (as links) in a tiny e-mail while on the go is powerful.”
