Personal Review: Making Web Storage Easy

Ever had a file that you wanna share to another person who's located far from you? Or you wanna share things to wider audience and let people download it? (e.g. ebook, zip files) Well, there are some sending/sharing file options, such as:
- using bulky attachment on email
- yousendit file transfer (send/receive max 2GB file/folder)
- Google Docs (which allows you to store files, edit them, and share it to other people (depends on permission option, they also can edit the files).

- internet storage (e.g. harddrive.com and Box.net)
I'm currently interested in using Box.net, cuz it's convinient and simple.

Box.net was founded on a simple, powerful idea: it should be easy for people to access, work with, and share all their content, wherever they are. - as quoted

Top 10 Box.net features that businesses love:
