I need to share a file with a a friend and I have seen som people here use some webbased filesharing service but I can’t remember what the name of the service was.
Anyone who knows which site mean?
None of those I was thinking of, the one I was thinking of you did not need to sign in.
But thanks anyway they where nice too!
http://rapidshare.de seems quite popular. I’m always seeing people using it on forums I visit anyway. It has the typical popup ad nonsense, but you don’t need to sign up to use it.
what about the venerable ftp?
I guess many don’t have their own space?
I like being able to just open up an ftp client and throw whatever up.
Any public ones that you can upload stuff to?
I miss my shell account from 10+ years ago. Detach bitchx on irc and file serv songs…
Can unix shell accounts still be had?
definitely, but most of the ones with any decent amount of space have to be paid for
Paying $5 - $10 for a shell account is reasonable to have direct ftp access, no adverts, etc. if you ask me. Seems like a small price to pay.
why not just use slsk? 
Set up a Renoise bot on slsk network… uploading could also work via web app. Just a thought.
