Want to email large files? I’ve got a solution for you!
It can get extremely frustrating when trying to send a file via email only to find that it’s too big. Maybe it’s a video, music, or even some images. I’ve come across this problem myself many times before and in the end, you have no choice but to copy your files to CD/DVD or even a USB flash drive and send it off via post, which usually takes a day or two, even when using the priority/express service.
What if you wanted someone to receive your files within hours, even minutes (depending on the file size) with very little effort at all? What if I told you that it’s possible and totally free as well?
There are two really good web based file storage and delivery services which I’ve used for quite some time now and never had an issue with either one. Best of all, they are fast, free and very simple to use.
- DropSend
Quick and easy sign up; takes about 15 seconds and you are good to go. Very simple interface to navigate around. You can store up to 250MB of files and send up to 5 files per month, absolutely free! Paid plans are also available from $5 per month.
- YouSendIt
Also a quick and easy sign up process; takes about 2 minutes. Also includes a simple interface to navigate. You can send files up to 100MB and have 1000MB of bandwidth allocated to your account each month.
Both of these tools come with plugins and add-ons which will allow you to send files directly from your desktop, without having to log into the website each time, making life even easier.
