Listen, I'm glad you are enthusiastic about your product and I wish you guys luck. But, seriously what is not simple about Dropbox? Are you hoping to grab market share simply by offering people free space? Who is dying to switch over to your service over Dropbox (or any other large competitor)? OR are you just trying to go along the journey to see if there is anything in the market that will differentiate yourself?

Thanks Michael. It is definitely going to be a long journey and we will learn and improve over. This is only the beginning :)
I can't tell if your refusal to answer the question is just avoiding giving away your plan, or if it's an indication that you don't have one at all.
If you don't have one, my suggestion is to start with native folder support. I use Dropbox because I don't have to use my browser to use it. That would be a good place to start.
There is a lot of noise in the space and a lot of competition, and as someone new entering the space, we definitely have a long way to go. We've only setup a team and started working on Minus full time about a month ago here in NYC. The vision behind Minus is and will be focusing on creating a simple and universal sharing experience.
Minus will evolve over time and we are open to all suggestions and feedback on how to improve and hopefully you'll think differently in few months :) Not sure if you saw, but we have many apps also available via http://minus.com/pages/tools that we're working on simultaneously and improving along with the web front.
Thanks!
