Dropbox File Sharing

Dropbox is more than just for file sharing, but here I am only treating it as a tool to share files between computers over the internet.

The service is FREE to use for upto 2Gb.

How to:

  1. Download (for PC, Mac, Linux and iPhone) – a small application that has to be downloaded and installed on the PCs / hosts where files will be shared from.
  2. Install – the application, when installed, will create a folder on the local host that can be used just as if it is a local folder (in fact it is a local folder). Dropbox will “share” that folder with other users (with the proper access privilege)
  3. Share

Pros: Platform independent,

Cons: None available at this time.
