Hi Max -

We support a file upload feature to your machine over a regular browser - as you describe. You can also share out files or folders from your host machine and access them from anywhere over a regular browser - no other software required.

is a filesharing tool that lets me share files with myself as primary focus, with friend sharing as add on. What I mean by this is that about 90% of my needs for sharing files is that I have something I want to save when I am at work or out traveling, so that I can use it at home later.

An easy browser based tool that lets me upload files to my home network drives is the solution I would prefer - zero installation on the upload client is essential. Email don't cut it due to limited file sizes, and the online storage services I tried are too slow and too expensive. They also have the drawback of requiring me to do a download when the file is needed, thus doubling the transfer time.

Combine this with private friend sharing and you have a killer app.

Hey, cool. Welcome to the family.

In Zapr news, we've just launched a new version with private sharing. :-)

Thanks Liz for covering this space.
