Here’s the list of third-party apps already integrated with Google Drive

With the launch of Google Drive today, many of the rumors and leaks surrounding the new service have been dispelled, and instead replaced with (mostly) concrete answers. One of the leaks concerning third-party integration turned out to be true, with Google courting a number of partners behind-the-scenes in time for the Drive launch.

Overall, 18 services have modified their applications to work with Google Drive in some fashion. One of our favorite up-and-coming cloud companies — and former DEMOGod winner — WeVideo, has even joined the party to bring its collaborative video editing to Drive. Another cool Drive integration partner is HelloFax, which promises free online faxing and document signing.

This is a great start for the service, but development options are quite limited. For now, Drive’s SDK and APIs are only available to Web apps, which people must install on their Google Drive account through the Chrome Web Store. As the service becomes more pervasive, I have no doubt other apps will join the party, thus opening the APIs to include mobile apps.
