This is brilliant. The site is the design is the service is the brand. Right here, this page, is everything. It explains itself.  It tells you what to do and how to do it. And it's a really handy service. Fantastic. (via 37signals)

You get to this page. You know immediately what it is and how it works. The user-initiated expiry time is just genius. For a number of reasons.

There's many many services like this out there: yousendit.com, megaupload, mediafire, dropsend, box.net, and so on and so on. But they're all too complicated and fiddly.

I'm just hoping that this thing isn't too successful for its own good...

You get there - you see a beautifuly simple page. You read it - it seems so clever. You read it again. What's Step 2 again ? Must be simple. You read it again. Nope, not getting that. 'Get a private link to share' - what does it mean ? What's a 'private link' ? Don't know - I can guess, I suppose - maybe THAT'S what I'm supposed to do ! Is it an imperative ? Is it telling me that if I click on the button it will give ME a link that I can share (presumably with my friends - even 'though 'private' suggests it's not to be shared). Hmmm.. maybe it means that I have to get SOMEONE ELSE to link to it - it's THEIR link, linking to MY file ?

Am I missing a page here ?

It is, at the very least, horrendous english. Am I being too 'morning grumpy' ? This is part of a bigger rant that I have brewing but I'll keep it for a more credible moment. Good morning.

My fave is:
http://www.mediafire.com/

Unlimited file size, no time limit and you can share the files with more than one person...

This is excellent and a PERFECT example of Web You.

I've uploaded my vision of the future on it:

Those guys must have read John Maeda's Laws of simplicity. At last an easy way to send a large file.
