What is Conduit
==========
Conduit is a synchronization application for GNOME. It allows you to
synchronize your data between online web services
(Gmail,backpackit.com, Flickr, PicasaWeb, Box.net, etc) and your
computer.

What Can Conduit Do
=============
For a list of all the services that conduit supports see
 * http://www.conduit-project.org/wiki/SyncStatus

In the one way sync/export case Conduit is smart in the sense that if
a piece of data has not been modified then it will not be
synchronized/exported again, it will replace the existing data. In
addition if data is subsequently removed from a source then its
corresponding data will also be deleted.

In the two way case it can sync many different types of data and
notify you when there has been a conflict (two items modified at the
same time).

Conduit has a full featured DBus interface to allow other application
authors to use Conduit to perform the synchronization and export tasks
of their applications.

Conclusion
=======
More and more people use online services to organise their life, I
hope Conduit can be the bridge between peoples computers and the web.
