Drop.io is the site that lets you store and share your media privately online.
The basic account allows you to store 1G of whatever you want. This could be pictures, documents, music, videos, notes, links, and more. The content is set up on your own drop.io/whatevernameyouchoose/ site, which also gets you an email address with the same name to go along it. You can view the page holding your content in three different styles. One shows action on the page chronologically, another breaks down the content based on media type, and the third brings media such as videos and pictures to the forefront, allowing you to select from thumbnails to see in full force the files you added to your site. With drop.io, you choose an expiration date so that there aren’t tons of sites that have lost their worth randomly floating in cyber space. If you want the site to last longer, you can just extend the expiration date a few days before it’s gone. Drop.io has many functions, such as your own private blog, a place to share media or projects with others and collaborate with comments and their additions to the link, somewhere you can share private photos with your friends and have it password protected, a place to store your files so you can transport them from computer to computer without constantly having to email them to yourself, and more. You can choose whether other users can add content and if they can comment or not. If you add a video, they automatically embed it into your site. If you have photos, they group them so you can see them by thumbnails easily. If you load music, it’ll become possible to stream from the site. There are so many possibilities available with this site, and it’s all done privately behind your own personal webpage.
Drop.io In Their Own Words
“A drop is a ‘discrete’ chunk of space you can use to store and share anything (pictures, video, audio, docs, etc) privately, without accounts, personal registration, or an email addresses. Drops are not searchable and not ‘networked’, they just exist floating in space. You can create as many as you want and set things like a password, whether visitors can add to the drop, and how long you want it to exist (you can renew later). One of our favorite little features is that when you make a drop you also automatically get an email address of the same name @drop.io – so you can email in notes and attach files you want to put into a drop. We hope you find the service useful.”
Why Drop.io It Might Be A Killer
It’s incredibly easy to use and looks really attractive for a site where you just have to choose some files to upload. It can easily be used for so many things, and I’m sure plenty of people would pay to get extra storage space since 1G goes only so far. It’s like your own portable, private, smart desktop. It’ll be interesting to see what other features they come up with.
