Dropbox’s Web Interface Gets An Overhaul: Adds Bulk File Management, Search, And More

Dropbox , the impressive file manager which makes it easy to sync your files across multiple computers and the web, has released a brand new version of its online interface. Today's upgrade brings with it a number of new features that will make it much easier to manage the large number of files users often have on their Dropboxes. Among the new features are the ability to select multiple files in the file browser and perform bulk operations on them. You can also select multiple files and have them placed into a new Zip file, which will make it easy to send multiple files at once. Other new improvements include a search feature, Gmail-style keyboard shortcuts, and a version of the site that's been optimized for mobile phones. Of course, many people primarily use Dropbox through its desktop clients that integrate quite nicely with your operating system, but these are welcome additions for anyone who has to access their files when they're away from their primary computer.
