[ ] Dropbox & [ ] Google Drive - see conversation starting at https://gitter.im/amark/gun?at=569a91e359e3d04215bc2318

@samiralajmovic - I don't see where you posted this, but wanted to make sure it was captured as an issue.

Yes, I was going to post it, but first had to check that google drive had the necessary API. Browsing around a bit I found some info:

https://developers.google.com/drive/v2/web/quickstart/js https://developers.google.com/drive/v2/reference/files/get

Basically the premise was to enable storing data to a end users cloud storage like google drive / dropbox.

There's a levelDOWN module that does something similar for Google Sheets, and with luck, it should work nicely with gun-level. I'll try it out soon (hopefully today) and see if I can get an example working... Sadly it doesn't look like there is an equivalent for dropbox :(

So as it turns out, the sheet-down library has quite a few bugs. I was able to fix a bunch of them, but it'll take a while to get it fully working. I'll probably see about submitting a pull request this weekend, and I'll keep this discussion updated...
