Sending people large files

Yeah, there are a million services out there that allow you to upload files and then you can tell someone where to download it. Most however, don't get it. They are trying to cash in on it by making the pages complicated and asking too many questions.

Oh, and would you like a business registration? etc

senduit do it perfectly. You might not find them when you Google "file upload" (the vultures are all there, circling).

But next time someone's email to you bounces with "message size exceeded", send them to senduit.

  1. Browse for your file.
  2. Hit Upload (a really LARGE button for end users to hit)
  3. Click on email this link
  4. Enter email.
  5. Done.

It's perfect. I bet this is even simpable (sic) enough for Scott. (Of course it is, I just realized that's where I got the original bookmark from!!)

While this is cool, large is a relative term. 100 MB is large, but I am using Windows Live Messenger to send people VM's (4ish GB). Wish there was a service that allowed that ;)

Good point Shawn. (there's always ONE difficult person isn't there?)

I didn't check out the other sites, but there are a ton that *say* any file size. I suspect they don't really mean it though..
