That's still one action more than is required for using a synchronization service. The killer feature is not having to do anything at all. I save my file on one computer, and it's available on all my other machines, my phone and anything with a web browser without a conscious thought at all.

I wonder how hard it would be to make a folder that automatically pushes itself to a git repo whenever it detects a change in its contents, I've actually been thinking about that for a bit now. The optimist in me thinks it can't be too hard, could be a nice project to do someday.

You could do it easily with a service which just indexes the files and periodically looks at most recently modified timestamps and then pushes if any of them are later than the most recent sync.
