Valve recently announced that their Steamworks SDK would include a feature called Steam Cloud in a future update. What Steam Cloud does is implement my own most-wanted feature – a way to keep saved games in sync across multiple PCs. (At one point I even thought I would write my own software, registering steamsync.com.)

In any event, it’s unlikely that Steam Cloud will be back-ported to many (if any) existing titles on Steam. That means I still need a solution for keeping my Peggle save file in sync between my desktop and laptops. :)
