Gbridge is a free. It has just about everything you would need to network your computer with your gmail contacts. Remote control other computers, sync folders, share files and chat securely and easily. All of this is done through a VPN (Virtual Private Network).

This software is for so easy to set up.  You don’t have to know any fancy computer lingo.  Just download, run the installer and log in using your google account information.

I currently have three computers running Gbridge.  My media server at home and two laptops that I use for work.  By using the home desktop as a server, I can always find my files and backup my data as long as I’m connected to the internet.
