In the new digital age, photographers and design artists alike, fight a major battle; how to manage large files. Since I am a photographer and web publisher, I have a need for access to my large files on a regular basis and I know I am not alone.
When producing written pieces I prefer to work from my laptop. I love the freedom of mobile creation. However, I maintain most of graphics and photographs on my desktop, so I am constantly transferring files. Thumb drives are a mainstay in my work environment, but I fear putting too much data on such a fragile device.
A couple of months ago, a friend introduced my to online file storage and I haven’t burned a CD or used a thumb drive since. Better Than E-Mail! Send Large Files Securely with Box.net. 14-day Free Trial
has been the best solution for my needs, however, you be the judge. I liked the fact that Box.net gives you a free trial to try out the service before committing to anything. Trust me, I used for the full 14 days before I decided that this was the best solution for my mobile lifestyle.
Besides having remote access my data, my business partners have enjoyed not receiving those huge email attachments. Give it a try and let me know what you think. If you have a better solution, I would love to hear it as well!
