By Mike Gunderloy, WebWorkerDaily
When we looked at the landscape of file-sharing, one of our main concerns was that none of the available file-sharing services provided a compelling advantage over email. With creating email attachments being so simple, why would anyone go to a new service to move files around? Well, one of the entrants in this crowded field, YouSendIt, has been quietly pursuing a strategy that may yet bring them to email parity: increasingly, they’re integrated into your desktop, instead of being just another web service.

July 24, 2007 - E-mail Attachments: Size No Longer Matters
By Lauren Simonds
Sending large file attachments via e-mail can be tricky once you start heading north of 10 or 20MB.

Enter YouSendIt.com, a Web-based subscription service that’s designed to let you send large files to anyone, anytime, anywhere, without either you or your recipient installing any software. You select a file to send and upload it to YouSendIt’s server. The person you’re sending it to receives an e-mail from You Send It that contains a link to your file. They click on the link, and download the file. [more]

The hosted transfer model isn’t as flexible as peer-to-peer sharing, but it is easier to use for both senders and receivers. [more]
