Gmail... Old school is to mail it to yourself... new school is to use a
program that mails it to yourself:
http://richard.jones.name/google-hacks/gmail-filesystem/gmail-filesystem.html
"Gmail Filesystem provides a mountable Linux filesystem which uses your
Gmail account as its storage medium. Gmail Filesystem is a Python
application and uses the FUSE <http://fuse.sourceforge.net> userland
filesystem infrastructure to help provide the filesystem, and libgmail
<http://libgmail.sourceforge.net> to communicate with Gmail."
"GmailFS supports most file operations such as read, write, open, close,
stat, symlink, link, unlink, truncate and rename. This means that you
can use all your favourite unix command line tools to operate on files
stored on Gmail (e.g. cp, ls, mv, rm, ln, grep etc. etc.)."
