One Click Free Image Hosting

Oct/06 in Free Hosting, Online Apps

Now there are too many free image hosts out there on the Web today to name, so if you want to impress you had better do something slightly different than all the rest.  Pict does that job very well, by shortening the free image hosting process to one step.

How simple is it?  All you do is click on one of the empty “Upload Image” boxes, select the image, wait and you are done.

File Sharing Made Easy with s4ve.as

Sep/07 in Free Hosting

s4ve.as free file sharing

Free file sharing sites are a dime a dozen out there, however every so often one catches my eye.  S4ve.as allows you to upload any tile of any size for free and get a link back to it that remains good for 24 hours.  So if you need to quickly send a big file to a friend, this offers itself up as a great solution.

Once you get the link, copy and past it anywhere and share it instantly via e-mail, web page, instant message, status update, tweet, etc. Links are automatically shortened using bit.ly.

The only catch that some people might not like is the link is only live for 24 hours, after that the files in question are removed.  However, if you need a quick way to share anything – S4ve.as is an option better than most.

Apr/14 in Free Hosting

logo You can file this one under cool things I didn’t know I needed. File2.ws is a unique service that promises to convert anything into a web page.  Fuffy kitten aside (because they won’t fit in your CD-ROM drive no matter how hard you try) it does a good job at delivering on that promise.

All you need to do is browse for the file you want to convert, and then hit the “start conversion” button.  Some of the files it currently supports include:

  • documents (doc, pdf, odt, txt, rtf…)
  • programming source code (java, php, cpp…)
  • web documents (html, htm…)

Once uploaded, every converted file has a unique web address created for it, so you can point others to it and share the document in question.  So if you are searching for a free way to convert any file into a web page, give them a shot at File2.ws.

Free File Hosting Search with Gamma Files

Mar/27 in Free Hosting, Online Apps

Free File Searching If you are looking for a quicker way to search the various free file sharing sites, look no further than Gamma Files.  I just recently stumbled upon this file search engine and I have to say out of the many I have seen it might have the best looking interface.

It gives you the file name, accuracy, file type, size and the search engine it came from.  You can also sort the results by each of these categories, search your search results, and check out the search engine provider’s page for the search term in question.

Word of warning, there is adult content and it also appears there is no real easy way to censor it out.  Other than that though, gammafiles.com looks like a real winner if you are looking for an easy way to find a file hosted on the rapidshare, megaupload and other big file hosting providers out there.

iimmgg.com – bad name, good free hosting?

Aug/27 in Free Hosting

I have checked out my fair share of free image hosts out there, but nobody’s name has caught my eye more than iimmgg.com.  I’m just glad I’m not plugging this one on the podcast, due to the fact I am not even sure how to say that. 

screenshot_en

One funny thing I noticed was they have a notice on the upload page saying, “You must be at least 21 years of age.”  Of course they have no way of telling, so don’t worry too much. 

That offer visitor stats, gallery management, editing (via picnik), easy embedding and more.  Looks like all the basic “what should a free hosting service have” boxes have been checked.  After playing with it a ‘bit, iimmgg.com might have a bad name but I think it is yet another good free hosting solution for your images.
