Take A Leap

Via Robert Scoble

Sending images across to your friends and family have always been a major pain in the you-know-where. I use YouSendIt to send large files, zipped or unzipped to my clients. Even today, as I attempted to use that service, my machine choked and I had to split the delivery into seven separate packages. Not fun.

Well, just as I was lamenting about this to a colleague at work, I saw Robert Scoble's short post about PhotoLeap.

I have yet to try this service – there are options for free, plus and pro – but from a cursory look I think it holds a lot of promise for both PC and Macintosh users.

It just may make my life easier when clients come-a-calling for me to ship them images and neither my ISP nor theirs will cooperate. Try it out and let me know what you think.
