file sharing

Large File information

In my business, I often have large files that need to go from my client to me, and back again. Over the years, I've tried a number of solutions, but after a good start, something mildly catastrophic tends to happen to my files.  Either they arrive corrupted or the file won't arrive because it's too large.  I've been searching for a solution for over 5 years.

Driveway is a large file sharing tool that allows you to send and receive large files, as large as 500 mb.  These files are often rejected by email clients, because of the large size.  This free application seems to be growing at a time when many file sharing tools are limiting their services.

There are three simple downloads that you can make to your computer, to make this file sharing utility even easier to manage. By downloding the desktop widget, you create an icon directly on your computer screen that allows you to connect to the site. If you share many files directly on your desktop, the Driveway Plug In may be better suited for you. This download allows you to right click your file and create a Park It link. The Web Widget allows you to embed any large file directly to your blog or website. Do you have a favorite video to share? Simply park it at Driveway and embed the link to your blog!

This is a great tool, perfect for blogging, podcasting, picture sharing and more.  I highly recommend it for small businesses that need to quickly and effectively share documents and files. As a small business tool, collaboration is very easy, because all of those who are linked to the file are able to make adjustments to the file, and everyone can immediately see it.
