Dropbox and other Alternatives
While services like Dropbox, SugarSync, and Windows Live Mesh don’t have the same hands-off, “upload it and forget it” approach that MegaUpload and similar webapps have, they all offer some ability to sync a cloud storage account with a folder or set of files on your computer, and then quickly share those synchronized files with someone else. Dropbox lets you use your public folder to share files and your images folder to share galleries, for example. While none of the services offer you unlimited file storage or uploads the way some webapps do, you can always follow our guide to maximizing your Dropbox space to give it a boost.
