Dropbox taps third-party apps for file editing on the web
Dropbox started out as a simple online vault for your most important files, but over the years the company moved from just having a place to store and share documents to a place where you can get collaborative work done on them. Today, Dropbox is announcing a new tool called Extensions that'll make it a lot easier to get basic tasks done through the Dropbox web interface. Thanks to partnerships with a host of software companies like Adobe, DocuSign, Vimeo, Nitro, Pixlr and Smallpdf, Dropbox users will be able to run various "workflows" to edit files on the web without having to download anything or open any apps.
