The Fun Extras - Set Three

60. Online Sharing Resources

I am always reading requests on how to share files online with others. This list is a great resource.

 

Here are your comments!

I opened a free MediaFire account some time ago just to store photos for myself before I splurged on a proper back up system. Some of those mentioned I'm not familiar with. A good resource for those who've not thought about uploading files. JanetMM

I use the box.net from the designer class lesson but I dont share much Dawn Miner

I never thought about using a service to upload my layouts, I usually just email them as attachments to my family. ccynden

How about Windows Live SkyDrive? I think I learned about it from you . Also, if someone wants to share really large files (and has some $$ to spend), they might want to check out Pogoplug. g_robb53

I have used several of these in the past, but I have my own hosting now. Much easier... for me and for the person downloading. Dawn

I had to learn about sharing files for my CT work...I heard that 4shared has had probs with hackers/stuff being stolen so don't use that myself...I use Mediafire, and Karen of Snickerdoodles told me about YouSendIt so I've also used that on occasion Good to have a list though, as I've not heard of some of those other places! Thank you! Bernie x

haven't done this before so useful to know about these sites Janen

I use MediaFire and Box.net. If I'm having trouble uploading to one of them, I try the other and usually have success. Both are free accounts. I try to stay away from 4shared, too, as I had heard about the problems there. I'll check out some of those others on the list and see if they are free and easy to use! Thanks, Hummie! What is your own hosting, Dawn? I'm curious about that. Belle33

I use Box.net for free and was paying for YouSendIt but I dropped it as I just didn't send out that much. NancyP

As per the Designer course I have opened a Media fire account. lynnedbears

I use net box, but I don"t share on line usually, just with my family. Jules

It seems as if I have registered for one of the above sites. Now I need to read on how to use it. Thanks a lot. 204cg

I am a 4shared girl, never had 1 little lick of problems in 4 years. Cause Hummie asked so nicely, i got mediafire too, but pay for it so my guests don't have to deal with the ads. Mediafire free always popped up so many ads that eventually i refused to go there! Until Ms. Hummie… lovinlifegurl

I'm afraid I don't share much, just to family and friends, so usually just email Perhaps I'll be brave enough one day! a1bjm

I know about several of these. But I don't share files on the internet thus far. Maybe in the future. Thanks for the list! I'll have it if I need it! JustaMommie

I don't share much, either. I don't like that 4shared makes a person log in now to download things. Thanks for the list. Tammyshere

I am using dropbox. My son had been sending me stuff that way and when I got on board here at Hummies' that is where the collab, etc. is. Works for me. The only things I share are for the site here. I do use it as a way to download digi stuff while on my ipad, so I can then just go to my account and continue to download onto my computer. I discovered this by accident and it made me happy. I prefer to be on ipad unless I am using PSE and making layouts, or uploading layouts, or watching tutorials, etc. Nanscraps

I used to use Dropbox. AMarie
