Every now and then I need a way to share large files. Typically, I use Dropbox or We Transfer. However, I just found File Dropper via Richard Byrne's blog, Free Technology for Teachers. This service allows you to upload a file up to 5gb, and it creates a download link that you can share with others. This is a handy service if students need to access large files or you need to share large files for professional development. It sure beats email!

Kristen,
ReplyDeleteOne thing to note about File Dropper is that the url it generates for your file expires after roughly 5 days. So if the person you're sharing with doesn't grab the file in time, you'll need to repeat the File Dropper process.
Richard
Thanks for the tip!
