Drop.io is Cool.io

Filed under: Technology, Cool Tools - by Erik Mazzone @ 4:34 PM

I came across Drop.io recently.  Like so many of the things I love on the web (can you say Twitter?), it's neat but I'm not entirely sure what I am going to do with it.

Drop.io is, in essence, a really easy to use file sharing site.  You can create a Drop.io drop site without registering or even setting a password.  Instantly, you'll get a little corner of the web where you can upload files, notes or links -- either to store or to transfer to somebody else.  Once the data is uploaded, all you need to do is tell somebody else where to find it (www.drop.io/YOURACCOUNT) and they can head off to grab it.

There are a lot of file transfer sites out there, but two things set Drop.io apart:  first, it is the most hassle-free web 2.0 experience I have had in a long time.  Second, you can add content to the site by uploading, by sending an email or even by leaving a voicemail.  That's pretty cool.

Check it out, and if you come up with some interesting application of Drop.io, shoot me an email and let me know.
