For a tech start-up to get to 100 million users is a remarkable feat, one that took Facebook more than four years. Online storage firm Dropbox on Tuesday announced it had achieved that milestone in nearly the same time.
That isn’t bad for a company that some have derided as a feature, not a product. By that, critics mean that larger companies would squash the start-up as they adopted similar technology.
Along with original content and posts from across the Dow Jones network, this section of AllThingsD includes Must-Reads From Other Web Sites — pieces we’ve read, discussions we’ve followed, stuff we like. Six posts from external sites are included here each weekday, but we only run the headlines. We link to the original sites for the rest. These posts are explicitly labeled, so it’s clear that the content comes from other Web sites, and for clarity’s sake, all outside posts run against a pink background.
We also solicit original full-length posts and accept some unsolicited submissions.
