You might wonder why the title looks weird, with that "Everything" in the middle of it. Well, that's because with Dazzboard's new "Cloud Storage" option introduced today, you get no upload limit, no file size limit, no resizing of the original file, no download limits, no speed limits, no nag screens, and no watermarking - FOR FREE.

dazzboard

Dazzboard describes their service as a "universal media manager," but we like to think of it more as a mobile device manager which lets you move your media files from your phone to your PC and up to the web. The innovative software is only a few months old, but it already supports over 100 different mobile devices. The idea is that you can use Dazzboard to move your content - be it photos, videos, or music - between your computer and mobile even if your handheld doesn't sync with iTunes.

Where To Host Your Blogger Blog JavaScript Files?

We all know that having your blog hosted at Blogger (blogspot.com) isn't that easy. One of the issues which Blogger users have to deal with is hosting their JavaScript files. Once, everything was easy, by using Google Pages. Some time ago I was telling you how to 'tweak' FileDen to host your JavaScript files as .txt but 5 GB bandwidth per month is not enough so I searched for something with unlimited bandwidth and found quite a few alternatives:

1. The most obvious choicee is Dropbox which can be used to host any kind of files for your blog. Dropbox is a sync and backup tool but it's server lets you host 2 GB of files to their server, and also, inviting friends to join can get you 3 more GB of space (5 GB total) - all for free. Dropbox can be used for other things too, like i told you HERE and HERE.

2. Office Live Small Business offers, among others, a solution for building a website. You can use this to host your files (free). It offers 500 MB of space, but that should be enough to host some JavaScript files, isn't it? :)

3. Lycos Tripod, the Spanish version of the website still offers unlimited traffic and 1 GB of space, for free (unlike it's .com version which only offers 20 MB space and 1 GB monthly bandwidth for free). The only downside is the web interface which is in Spanish. But you can use Google Translator for that.

Do you know any other hosting solution with unlimited monthly bandwidth, for free? If so, please share it using the comment form below! Thanks!

Drop.io Integrates Facebook Connect

| Date: May 27, 2009 | View Comments | Tags: drop.io, facebook, file hosting, web

Drop.io, the online storage service now supports Facebook Connect.


Here's how it works: when a drop.io user is adding and sharing files via a 'drop' he or she may access their personal Facebook account information via the settings function of the drop. Once the user registers the drop with their personal Facebook user identification information (username and password) a tab with a full list of that user’s facebook “friends” will populate on the screen. The user may then use this tab to create a shortlist of facebook friends permitted to access a given drop. “Friend Lock” restricts access to exactly the individuals you choose. You can select as many as you want, and even permission people based on their company name.

It's easier to understand by watching the below video:


Skip the Time Limit and Auto-Fill captchas for Megaupload

| Date: March 15, 2009 | View Comments | Tags: addons, file hosting, firefox, greasemonkey, megaupload

megaupload skip time-limitMegaupload is a file hosting service where many people host files and share the links (like rapidshare).

Most file hosting websites use captchas and time limits for non-premium users. The add-on MU Bundle for the web browser Firefox gets rid of the time limit at the Megaupload website. It will also initiate the download of the file automatically without user input. The process in its entirety looks like the following: The user opens a page on the Megaupload website that will initiate a file download. A captcha is displayed which has to be completed to process. Everything after this step becomes automatic thanks to the Firefox add-on. Please note that this addon is experimental and you will need to create an account on Firefox Addons to be able to install it.

You can also auto-fill captchas with a Greasemonkey user script called Megaupload auto-fill captcha.
