I use a combination of 2 apps.

I use  Grive-tools from
http://www.thefanclub.co.za/how-to/ubuntu-google-drive-client-grive-and-grive-tools



It provides a little gui config tool for Grive as well as an "indicator"
for my menu panel.  The actual syncing is done by Grive:
http://www.lbreda.com/grive/start


I just used the PPA with grive-tools, ppa:thefanclub/grive-tools

It contained both grive and grive-tools, installed, launched it and
configured it using the defaults. So my I have a couple folders on GDrive
which get synced directly to "~/Google Drive"

I obviously didn't put a lot of thought into it since I avoid spaces in
directory and filenames in general - but I was just in user mode, as long
as it worked I was happy and moved on.
