Simple web-based file sharing (beta)

I use http://ge.tt for this. No sign up needed, no upload size limit, and better yet - the other person can start downloading the file as soon as you start uploading. How is Dropr better?

hiddentao,

View Dropr.in not as a replacement for Box or Ge.tt, but as something completely different. Ge.tt is about as close as it comes, but they're viewing your data as a cache of files with free accounts limited to 250MB of storage. We're not a "cloud storage" provider. We let you quickly transfer files between devices without having to jump through any hoops.

Or better yet https://www.sharefest.me/ p2p HTML5 file transfers.

Nux,

This service is very different from Dropr.in. We're not trying to be "Bittorrent in a browser". Our goals are simplicity and convenience. Looks like a nice site if P2P is your need, though.
