Seems good, but emails? Again? What makes this different from SendSpace or WeTransfer?

Do something different. Maybe a combination of keywords + geolocation for identifying files.

-- I've sent you a file at poetic.io!

-- What is the link?

-- Just go there, it's in your address.

Yes, about emails you are right. I'm pretty open to find another solution. We can also brainstorm a bit about the solution if you like :)

I think poetic.io has a much better UI, user experience (comparing it with SendSpace). The real differences will be deployed in two/three weeks: - previews on pictures (gallery), pdf and media - background customisation for the transfer (for example with your brand) The pro version will be completely different, I'll keep you updated on that ;)

What makes Poetic.io different than other methods of transferring and sharing file? (Dropbox for example has 10 GB limit file-size limit)

with Dropbox you have to register, install a software and, most of the time pay,(actually you just have 2GB per account): https://www.dropbox.com/en/help/73 You have also to keep the file on your computer while is shared.

Here you have 3GB per transfer (unlimited number of transfers), no registration needed.
