Dropbox, one of the frontrunners in cloud storage, is working on a new product in which CEO Drew Houston refers to this as a “special project.” All we know is that he dusted off his coding skills for this one.

“You can’t code 100% of the time, but I think it’s really important to stay current with technology if you run a technology company,” he says.

Houston came up with Dropbox when he was at a bus station in Boston’s Chinatown and realized he’d left all of the work he needed on a thumb drive at home. So he wrote the first lines of code on the bus for a “magic folder.”

What does Houston think is the future of the cloud? He brings up Minority Report to explain how things are going to be more and more available and accessible online.
