Storage is cheap and plentiful. Most computers now ship with enough room for growing digital media libraries and online services are starting to offer gigabytes of cheap online storage for end-users and application developers. This month’s SF Tech Sessions will focus on the changing world of online storage, bringing together three companies changing the way we store and share our data online.
Who
- Box.net provides users with 1 GB of storage for free with higher storage limits available for a monthly fee. Founder Aaron Levie will present.
- Fabrik bridges the world of hardware and online services with intelligent hard drives and large online backups. Dave Tang of Fabrik will present.
- S3 from Amazon Web Services provides developers with reliable online storage at cheap, scalable rates. File storage currently costs 15 cents per GB-month and 20 cents for every GB of data transfered. Jeff Barr of Amazon will present.

Each speaker will have 15 minutes to talk about their product, its origins, and give a demo. You will have some time to mix with the speakers and other participants before and after the presentations, so don’t be shy.
Please RSVP in the comments below. Building security requires a list of all attendees for easy access. If you do not RSVP but still attend someone may have to escort you upstairs from the lobby.

Jan,
I have too much going on just from organizing the event. Attempts to capture audio from speakers and audience participants is just too much work and takes away from the experience of those in the room.
I’m in. Thanks Niall.
I’ll come up to the city for this!
I’ll see you all there….
