divShare: The RapidShare Alternative

divShareIf you've been using RapidShare or Yousendit to send files across the internet, you might be interested in divShare. You can upload or download files at high speeds with no wait time - without registering. There is no file size limit on what you can upload, you can download the file as many times as you want, and the files unlike Yousendit will last forever. Basically there are no restrictions; and yes it's a free service!

Registering does have its advantage. You can track how many downloads your files have, and when the last download was. You can see when it was uploaded, and choose to delete it. If you decide to register you'll see the files you've recently uploaded even before you registered. When uploading images, it gives you a direct link to the image so you can display it on a website, generates a thumbnail preview of the image, and gives the HTML code to display it. If you upload more than one image you can create a gallery to display them in, and upload multiple images at the same time. The gallery is displayed to the public, and is pretty simple. It shows thumbnails of all the images, which you can click to enlarge along with a button to go to the next image.

However there is one downside that I see. You can't upload PHP or EXE files. I'm not exactly sure what other file types aren't allowed, but those two were the most noticeable. To get around this just add another digit on to the file's extension before you upload it. Hopefully they will allow files of these types in the future.
