How do I add a blob to Windows Azure?

Question

I created a storage account on Windows Azure. Then I added a container called rubicon to my storage account and got to the following screen:

I don't see any button/link that allows me to add a blob. Would be nice to see a "Click here to add blob" link on this page, but there is nothing. I did have a look on How to use blob storage, but that only shows how do do it though code.

Where do I add a blob on the Windows Azure portal?

Answer 1

Portal does not have the capability to upload blobs in a container. You would need to use one of the many available storage explorers to upload files in the blob container. Do a search around and you'll find open source/free/commercial storage explorers.
