There is a new free file sharing and hosting service that recently caught my eye. 4Shared.com promises to give you free online storage, to upload, access and share your music, video and photos. You can upload and share a single file or an entire folder!
Offering 5GB of space for free, this service sounds terrific. 4Shared also comes with a built in search engine, so you can browse around to see the other content people are uploading.
How long are the files hosted there? Your free account and all your files will be removed from 4Shared only if you do not log in the account for 30 days.
Here are the most popular types of files that may be shared:
- document file (doc, txt, pdf, rtf, xls)
- music file (mp3, ogg, wav, mid)
- video file (avi, mpg, mpeg)
- image file (jpg, gif, bmp, png)
- zip file (zip, rar, arj)
- any other types
If you like the free service, then you can also upload to the paid versions too. A one year membership will remove some of the limits. So if you out-grow the free version, the paid version is always there to give you a few more perks.
