Files to Friends

You can send multiple files of up to 1 GB using Files to Friends. The number of files you can send is limited to 10, but you don’t have to register for any account to send files for free. Another drawback is that the file can only be shared with 5 recipients.

Sending large files – like movies to a friend, or graphic files to a designer – often requires some creative thinking around the delivery method. Email, because of the file size, is usually not an option. Dropbox is, of course – but if your recipient doesn’t use Dropbox, include time for the registration process and software to download before any file sharing takes place. This sharing dilemma is a situation in which Sam Franklin found himself. Franklin, CEO and founder of Greenvelope, an electronic invitation service where the designs model the look of a real paper invite, saw the business opportunity in the problem. Keyword research showed that even with the number of existing services available, a quarter of a million people were still searching for the phrase “file sharing.” So Franklin worked with the team at Greenvelope to code, design, and launch FilesToFriends.com, a free service that makes sharing files up to 1 GB as easy as 1, 2 , 3. That is 1 – upload the file, 2 – enter the email you want to send it to, 3 – push the send button. Below, Franklin shares news related to new features at Greenvelope, as well as what makes FilesToFriends.com stand apart from existing file sharing services.
