Not many are using Dropbox on servers yet, but if their users upload files, they should.
My itty bitty part-time startup has a better uploader than Flickr, thanks to Dropbox on the server. Users share a folder with the server and copy photos into it that they want uploaded. They can be choosing photos to upload even with no connection, e.g. traveling with a laptop.
- edanm 16y agoThat's a great idea. I wonder how many people are using Dropbox in this way, i.e. as a framework for sharing things with the server.
- brlewis 16y agoI think there's an audio site out there using Dropbox this way. Other than that I haven't heard of it. Maybe when their API includes folder-sharing functionality more people will do it. Right now I manually accept the shared folder request.
