Windows Live SkyDrive ups its free online storage to 5 GB
Windows Live SkyDrive increased the free online storage from a measly 1GB to 5 GB. SkyDrive is also out of Beta. The free online storage from Microsoft is available for Windows or Macintosh computers with Firefox 1.5 or higher, or Internet Explorer 6 or higher.

Windows Live SkyDrive provides integration with Windows Live Spaces to allow users to add a module to their Spaces displaying their public shared folders. Windows Live SkyDrive also displays navigation links to different parts of Windows Live Spaces, including Windows Live Events for tighter integration.

The only thing is, there are still no desktop software tools (which I know of) that supports batch uploads to the online drive. And I bet you, it gonna suck uploading files one by one.
