FileDropper.com – simple online storage.
Today I discovered FileDropper.com, a simple solution for offsite backup and archiving.
Here is the idea: (snapshot of the site)
FileDropper.com site
While there is quite a few sites that offer online storage (some of them even for free), none come close to giving out the amount of FREE space that FileDropper.com does: 100GB. Yes, you read it correctly one hundred gigabytes of free online storage.
The first question I got after telling a few people about this was: does it integrate with the OS like DropBox?
Unfortunately, the answer is: No, it doesn’t (at least yet). Not sure if they are working on something, but it would be nice to have at least FTP access (hint hint FileDropper).
So, how does it work? As simple as it gets.
1. Get an account
2. Click the UPLOAD button
3. Watch your file fly off to cyber-land.
The only limitation is the file being uploaded must be smaller than 5GB, which is very generous.
That’s how simple it is.
Since that seems to be the only way to upload files to the site, and the process is done manually, it seems that the best use for FileDropper is archiving and offsite backup (done manually).
Personally, I just zipped the contents of my Documents folder into a few large files and uploaded them to FileDropper.com.
Here’s a screenshot of a file being uploaded: (click on thumbnail for a full view)
File upload progress
When it’s done, FileDropper gives you two links to the file:
Link to uploaded file
After you’ve uploaded some files you can take a look at a section called: My Files
My Files section
Privacy settings
Here you can set some privacy:
- make the files private or public
- set a password
Once again – simplicity wins.
Thanks to everyone at FileDropper.com for developing a good, simple product.
Now I know where to backup my iTunes Library and tons of other stuff.
New section and new tutorials – Network Security
Just added a new section to LANverse.com – Network Security.
Check it out if you’re interested in the security aspect of networking. This new section will deal with software solutions to the ever increasing threats to networks and articles on how to protect your PC from being targeted by malicious hackers, as well as malicious software.
Hamachi screenshot
First tutorial on Network Security deals with a great piece of FREE software called Hamachi, from a company called LogMeIn. They have many cool products, but Hamachi is one that especially caught our eye a while back even before it was acquired by LogMeIn. All of our machines at LANverse.com use Hamachi, because it is a great solution to securing remote access to your files as well as providing you with your own VPN. We especially like the ability to run FTP servers over Hamachi.
All of this for a price of $0. Enjoy and comment/email us with any questions you might have!
