Summary

This week on Ask Lifehacker we're wondering if anyone's going to use the Google Drive service supposedly coming in April, upgrading our media centers, and urging you not to give your employer your Facebook credentials. Also, we take a look at the troubles of dual-booting Windows and OS X, getting on an information diet, making Google Voice and Skype play nice together, and more.
