Sending Large Files over the net with Web, Widgets and Facebook

Box.net



Transferring large files can be pretty tricky on the net. Although you can now send attachments up to 20 MB with Gmail, anyone that doesn’t have Gmail won’t be able to receive the files.

Box.net is a service that lets you store and share up to 1 GB of files for free. There are limits to the free service (such as limiting uploads to 10 MB), but you can upgrade to one of their Premium Services. Social Networking site, Facebook has opened up its code to software developers. Box.net has taken advantage of this, and you can share files with your friends over Facebook.

I’ve posted a promo track from Ulrich Schnauss, who I really like. The file is an example of the Box.net experience, so go ahead and download it from the widget, Facebook or this link.

Easily share large files with friends...

senduit - share easily

There have been so many times when I've wanted to share files with people, and the files were just too big to email. Now, there's a really easy, free way to share those files.

Easier than FTP, instant messaging or whatever other work-arounds you can think of, senduit is bare bones, but free and so easy to use. As they say on their site, the two steps are:
Step 1 Upload your file
Step 2 Get a private web link to share

You can specify how long until the link expires, between 30 minutes to 1 week. The only minor downside is that there is a 100 MB file limit.

Upload file. Email link. Download file. Free.
