+Owncloud provides an easy way to sync files across multiple systems (desktop, laptop and mobile), and is a good way to wean people off of the proprietary systems such as <a href="http://www.drop-dropbox.com/">Dropbox</a>. It can also do many other things, such as acting as a jukebox or a collaborative document editing system. Owncloud servers can also <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1F-N3QXN2s">federate together</a> to make it easy for independent installs to share files.
