You might already know about DropBox, a service that gives you 2GB of free cloud storage (more if you refer other people to the service, or if you pay a monthly fee) to keep your files synced online and between devices. Install it on your laptop and your phone – any files you put into it on one device are automatically synced over to the other. It even works with pictures: the Android app can automatically send photos from your phone's camera to a Dropbox folder for later sorting and posting.
You can also add individual Dropbox folders to your phone's homescreen as widgets for quick access. Once you've installed the Dropbox app, you can drag as many different folders as you want to a homescreen to get at whatever's inside at a moment's notice.
