Just Drop It
I have a collection of pictures (or files or videos or songs or notes). I want you to see them. They will *totally* clog up your inbox. What can I do?
This was the situation I was faced with a few weeks ago. To the rescue....semi-permanent storage and sharing with Drop.io!
No need to sign up for an account and provide all sorts of personal info. Just...
- go to http://drop.io/
- customize the "drop" url
- select the photos (or files) to upload
- decide how long to keep it active and whether guests can add, comment or delete (optional)
- click "drop it"
- add an admin password (for future modifications)
and Whammo! Instant storage that can be shared as you like.
Here is a 3-minute video that highlights some of the many things you can do with Drop.io (pictures, music, links, comments, email alerts, RSS feeds, and phone access just to name a few...) and their FAQ.
Possible use - allowing multiple people that normally might not all share an account to all contribute content. Example - my friend went on a vacation with several other friends. They set up a drop, gave the password to each of the vacationers, and everyone uploaded their pictures to a single place where they could share them with each other but not with the world.

Here's a drop just for Techbits readers. Password: techbits.
