YouSendIt — Send Large File Easily and Securely
Filed in: Tips n Tricks, Web — October 22nd, 2004
Normally we send files to others using email. We will have problems when the file we want to send is a large file, either the file size exceeded the max attachment size or the receiver’s mailbox is full/not enough free space.
If exceeded max attachment size, we need to split the big files into smaller chunks and send one by one. The receiver will need to combine those parts into one. Troublesome.
If receiver’s mailbox is full, the email you send will be bounced back and you need to resend it again later. Waste time.
YouSendIt is a free service to solve the problems. It helps to you to send large file quickly, securely and easily.
It took only 3 steps to send large file, as easy as 1-2-3:
- Fill in receiver’s email address.
- Select the file you want to send.
- Click “Send It” button.
Optionally, you can fill in your email address(to know who send the file) and message to receiver.
The receiver will receive an email notification with a download link of the file that you just send. The file will be available for 7 days from the date. You, the sender, also get the download link after send the file.
One of the great feature of YouSendIt is that it allow you to send large file size up to 1GB, almost large enough to send a full length movie!
Tip: Share your file with anyone(without needed to know their email addresses) by publishing the download link.
