Couple of weeks ago a friend of mine introduced ‘WeTransfer’ to me, a free file transfer service that competes with traditional services like Yousendit, Sendspace and so on.
Here are the specs:
I must say, I was pleasantly surprised by the way it looked. Ads that are placed as a wallpaper in the back are nice to look at and make it possible to provide this free service.The graphics are clean and besides the 2GB space you have in uploading files, it’s quick in sending them too. You receive an email with the confirmation of your upload in the same style with a forward possibility and a direct link of your uploaded file to copy & paste in other emails. The link is valid for 14 days and the best part is that you also receive a download confirmation from WeTransfer when your file is being downloaded. Nice to know..
I contacted the owner of WeTransfer cause of the following ideas I had:
Why not make personalized pages for people that send out loads of files, artists for instance. That idea was already implemented so….I wanted one! And here it is..Nice huh?
The other thing was the ‘direct link’. I ‘d love to see the direct link in the screen after you finish your upload. Sometimes the confirmation email takes some time and time is money 
. For instance; If you want to send an email to a new client, in which you introduce yourself, accompanied with files you have uploaded, you want that direct link immediately. It’s a small thing, hey I’m not complaining.
Next to that more things came to mind which I have sent to them. I don’t know what the future brings for WeTransfer but at the moment they are doing a good job and I am very happy with it. Have a look at their website and try it sometimes: WeTransfer.
