Google wants the process of saving files to Google Drive to be as easy and convenient as possible; today it's rolling out a new feature that lets developers embed a "Save to Drive" button on any website. The company says this handy user feature requires only two added lines of HTML code, after which visitors can save relevant files to their Drive account with a single click. It's a small addition, but notably sets Google's cloud offering apart from Dropbox, which doesn't currently offer an equivalent for this functionality. "Save to Drive" is also seeing integration across a number of select websites, and developers can start adding the feature to their own web projects immediately.
