Sometimes you need to send someone a file (or group of files) larger than the attachment limit of your email service (it is 25MB for Gmail).  Instead of splitting up the file and sending it over multiple emails, I use File Dropper.

There are a number of file hosting websites out there.  We have even mentioned how you can use Dropbox to share large files with others.  However, I like File Dropper for a number of reasons:

• It shares files up to 5GB.  That is significantly more competitors such as drop.io (100MB) or MediaFire (200MB).
• It is easy.  After you upload the file, File Dropper gives you a short URL that you can give to whomever you want to share the file with.
• There is no need to register or install an uploading program.  This helps make File Dropper quick and easy to use.  There is no need to create yet another account on the internet nor do you need to bog down your computer with yet another program.
• It keeps files ‘forever’.  I’m not sure how long forever is for File Dropper, but that is better than some other services where the files expire after a set time period.  Also, File Dropper has no limitations on the number of people you can share the file with or the number of times the file can be downloaded.

The simplicity, anonymity, but mostly the sheer capacity of File Dropper are what make it so appealing to me.  It does one thing and does it well, which is something we can all appreciate.
