I bet he wouldn't have had any problems emailing that folder to you. I know when I need to send a few documents or photos, I without even thinking try to do it via email, only to be met with messages of exceeding size limits.
Is there a service that ties both the action of emailing with the process of syncing via dropbox? If not, I could see it being incredibly useful for people like your dad, and mine. An app whereby you go through all the same motions of creating a new email, attaching a few documents/folders, and in the background those attachments are being synced to some dropbox folder.
Of course, email services could expand their size limits, but I'm sure there's a reason why they're not.
- ivankirigin 13y agoYep, it's too big to email. Dropbox integrates with a few mail clients actually.
- Gravityloss 13y agoEmail is actually a great and natural way to share things. It's often easier to mail documents and comments to a content management/ticket system than actually go there, log in, press "create new" etc. If the email protocols could be extended for efficient file transfer and cloud hosting somehow, a lot of people's lifes would suddenly get a lot easier.
