Developer here. Would love to hear your comments, and happy to answer any questions you might have.
The idea is not to compete with formal version control systems (such as git), but rather to provide a nice interface to the "events" and "previous versions" functionality of dropbox. This allows users to track changes to files (including viewing diffs of changes) and easily restore an entire directory if desired. Might even be useful for serious hackers when collaborating on files with friends/relatives who don't use git... :)
(As always, don't put your most precious secrets in dropbox. Or if you must, encrypt them before you do.)
