Dropbox

As photographers we often have a need to share photographs easily with clients, friends and family. Whilst my Photoshelter website has features for private, password protected galleries with configurable downloads, I haven't found anything easier than Dropbox for sending proofs etc.

2GB of storage is free, more space seems reasonable at (50GB is $9.99/month) and if you use multiple computers, it's really simple to sync all of them up to your Dropbox folder. I'm particularly impressed that I can do this across Windows PCs, a Netbook running Linux and an Android phone, that's very cool. There is a Mac client as well, and, of course you can also access your files over the web without installing the Dropbox client.
