Since I have a hosted webspace anyway, I created an optimized "Dropbox" for my Kobo on it like this: In Windows 7 I mounted a new directory (with a hard to guess name) to show as a folder inside Windows Explorer (and added this folder to the favorites). In that folder I have a modified php-script that shows large buttons (75x75px) with filetype-icons and a smaller text with the filename beneath. This size allows for having some overview in Kobos Browser as well as nice big buttons for touch. I also added some more security by having to login to that page for i would not want that private page to accidentally show up in any search engines... On the Kobo I created a link with the password as a parameter (this could be just a favorite, I set it as my browser-homepage), but of course logging in manually every time would word, too.
So now whatever I download or create to be read on the Kobo I just save in that directory (I also use a Chrome plugin to save articles from the web as readability-cleaned up epub) and I can access it later on the Kobo without having to plug it in first or even have it nearby.... Since I use a mobile 3G-router when on the move, I can access that folder from virtually anywhere...
I know I could use Dropbox or Gutenberg directly, but this is more versatile and uses less clicks on big buttons instead of small textlinks...
Of course an integration of Gutenberg and other sites as seen in various Android-eBook-Apps would be nice to have, too...
