Dropbox, one of my favorite free tools, has just updated their Linux package!  I am very excited by this because I can now run Dropbox on my non-GUI Ubuntu servers!

From the website:

Hi Friends!

We’ve been keeping this secret for some months while Megabuild (0.6.507) was in development. Now it’s finally ready! Here is the newest Linux package for Dropbox. In this package you can expect the following enhancements:

  • Dropbox CLI (man dropbox at your prompt :)
  • New Nautilus emblems (spiffy ones you see on the latest Mac and Windows builds)
  • Dropbox no longer autostarts for every user from Nautilus, you can now start Dropbox from your applications menu!
  • Jaunty compatibility out of the box (finally!)

For you Jaunty users out there who can’t stand a single level of indirection here are some direct links:

Enjoy!
