That would be cool. There is an extensive GDocs API [1] and you could probably hack something together for Dropbox [2] (till the proper API is released....).

It's a possibility.

Dropbox API is on its way according to their forums.

Keep an eye out here: http://code.google.com/p/dropbox-api/

Apparently in private beta.

Thanks for the head up :-) There's a promising weekend project in here for sure.

There are a whole list of gotchas and problems that immediately spring to mind but it would be fun to see it hacked up.
