DropBox – ultimate solution for online file storage.
DropBox is, IMHO, one of those "killer" services. For 0$ they provide you 2Gb of online storage, which can be used both for keeping personal files, photos, archives or sharing something with the world. Anything uploaded there in the Public folder has public link which you can send to friends or post on your blog. Alternatively, you can share file with certain people only.
But what makes this a killer service, you may ask? There seems to be a whole bunch of services like that available now. What makes DropBox unique is its interface. They provide applications for Unix/Mac/Windows platforms which allows you to seamlessly synchronize a folder on your hard disk with the online storage. It even works from behind an http proxy! Of course if you want, you can access your storage space via a web interface, which is a descent Web 2.0 application.
Personally I find this service awesome! Its not only feature complete but also extremely fast. I've been trying Apple's MobielMe service with iDisk but the I just canceled my trial as the speed was unacceptable! With DropBox I easily get 200 kb/s.
Enough words, just go to http://getdropbox.com and try it yourself. As I said, its free!
