Microsoft updates FolderShare beta

FolderShare
Microsoft has released a major update to its FolderShare file synchronization tool. FolderShare essentially lets users synchronize files and directories between multiple computers. There are clients for Mac and PC, so you can even keep documents synchronized if you're in a mixed marriage.

In a blog post, the FolderShare team point out some of the highlights of the new release:
  • New website for easier library and computer management
  • Improved performance on Windows Vista
  • Better setup and imporved system tray
  • Backend improvements keep FolderShare running more reliably
