I just carry a laptop everywhere to have my files “everywhere.”

GoogleDocs is great. I like the system a lot (and use gmail compulsively), but I like the idea for sync options. Why not let me store the files where I want, have them automatically synced up to GoogleDocs when I open the web program w/ a high speed connection (and even then, just upload changed documents so I don’t spend forever and a day waiting for “changes”), and then when I’m done, take 10 seconds and sync them back down so I have the changes locally.

That gives me the multi-access to my files that -I- want, plus makes it easier than e-mailing a file to myself 13 times on Web mail (or in the case of my last design class, the archive was over 1.5 GB, so no Web mail there …).
