About
DropGet is a small tool written over night by a web developer as a learning exercise in November 2008.
Practical Uses
In a nutshell, file sharing.
Email attachment too big? No USB key handy? Drop your files off here, for (you or) someone else, to get later. Useful for large multimedia files such as audio, video, or print artwork, or temporarily storing a large file for when you are in transit and can't take the file with you.
You can even use DropGet as a tool to provide free temporary storage for files linked in your email newsletter.
Allowed Files
Firstly, it has to be legal - tip us @dropget if there are any issues. Beyond that any file with the following extensions, as long as it is under 1000Mb; PDF, PSD, AI, GIF, JPG, PNG, ZIP, DOC, EXE, MSI, MP3, AVI, MPG, MPEG, OST, PST. Otherwise, uploads and downloads are unlimited.
TIP: If you want to store a file type that isn't supported, simply ZIP it up.
Competitors
There are lots of file share storage web service utilities. DropGet is yet another. However DropGet has a much higher file storage limit, it's cheap (free), and there is no signup for you to part with any personal information.
Privacy
With all due respect, we don't really care who you are, what you do, or where you go, beyond analysis of regular web usage analytics.
