I’ve got several projects which I’m working on via Google Drive or OneDrive. We’re using that to share project files and resource materials. Some of these materials I also want to keep in my own database. And the other way around: some materials in my own database I want to share with co-workers as part of the background materials for the project.
Curious to what other are using to achieve this, here’s what I’ve come up with:
-
Index and duplicate - my main ‘gripe’ is that I often use Classify to quickly put items in the right group, but it only allows ‘move’ or ‘replicate’ (I could possibly try scripting something to change this)
-
Index and replicate to my own database (chances are someone deletes the original at one point). Problem with replication is that co-workers obviously don’t see the replicates as files in a (shared) folder so replication only works when I replicate from the shared folder to my database.
Interested to see what scenario’s people are using where you have reference materials that come along in a project that you want to keep, or materials you’ve gathered that you want to make available to others (or just put in a project folder)
