Google Moves a Couple of Domains to Google Name Servers, Remote Storage in the Works?

These domains, unless otherwise noted, are not "new" but have just been moved from non-Google name servers to Google name servers. Perhaps, an officially sactioned Google remote storage service is next on their agenda? We've seen several mashups that allow users to use their GMail accounts for storage.

Transfers
+ MyGoogleDrive.com

+ MyGoogleStorage.com
Prior to this change the domains were listed on name servers from Domaincontrol.com .

+ Earthviewer.info (Earthviewer.com also registered to Google)

Btw, OpenHandSetAlliance.com
This domain was registered on October 10, 2007 and expires on October 10, 2008. One might have thought they would registered it for a longer period of time.

See Also: Remote Storage/Sharing Services We Like and Use:
So many. We could list hundreds. What do we use regularly?
+ eSnips (5GB, Free)
Save a page, a file, whatever. The toolbar makes getting the job done easy. Keep it private, share with a select group, or make it accessible for all to see. Keyword search your saved content.
+ Mozy ($4.95/month, our primary remote back-up service)
+ MediaMax (25GB of space to store, pay small amount (per month) to download back to yourself).
+ OmniDrive
Strong integration with Windows.

Of course, Yahoo now offers unlimited space for mail and has provided unlimited photo storage for some time.
