Every now and again you find yourself stuck with a file that's just too large to e-mail but too small to package up and post on the Web, or to be worth using an in-group file sharing system such as Pando or Tubes. Maybe you're working from home on a PowerPoint presentation for a big meeting, or you're a photographer who needs to get raw photos from one computer to another for editing. FileURLs is a new service that wants to make it easy by giving you a custom URL that you can give to anyone for your uploaded files.
The largest file you can upload to FileURLs is 250MB, so don't expect it to be the ideal service for sharing your movie collection with your friends. That's fine, since the service is ideal for sharing documents and archives of files, as opposed to raw media that might get you in trouble with the authorities. There are no social aspects to the service either, meaning you can't see what other people have uploaded.
