Or bitbucket.org if you're using Mercurial.

Mercurial with a local filesystem repo on dropbox works really well for a single dev.

@Guillaume : A single developper can use the "distributed" aspect of a DVCS. I do. For example, I can work on computer A, push my work on my usb key, and then pull from this usb key on computer B.

@Guillaume "Distributed" is a technical aspect, not an organisational one. You can use a centralised constrol source system with an organisation with integrators only allowed to validate commited code. That's possible but hard to setup because of the centralised nature of the tool. But that's still an orthogonal problem.
