WeTransfer

Its been a while since I posted an online tool, and given today's discussion about the perils of transferring and storing files, I thought WeTransfer would be an appropriate site to highlight. WeTransfer allows you to send big files (up to 2 gigs) to as many as 20 different people- without having to register. 

The file stays on WeTransfer's server for 2 weeks, and anyone who is on the email list can access the file at any time during that period. I think this service is a great way of sending a large file to a large group - but it also might be a good backup for those who fear that their USB may get lost or corrupted, and feel more secure with another method of accessing their files. It takes a bit of time to upload the file - at least it does on my sub-standard computer- but other than that, this is a very useful tool.
