Share1t provides simple, free file hosting up to 100mb


Some things are best kept simple, and that's exactly the way Share1t.com approaches its file sharing service.

The Share1t home page is totally uncluttered, with nothing but a thin information header at the top, banner ad in the footer, and a nice, big browse-and-upload form right in the middle.

After uploading your file, you'll be given a truncated URL, HTML and BBCode for embedding your file, and an option to email the link to the file. It only handles one address at a time, but the Ajax form provides the option to enter another recipient once your message has been sent.

Files of up to 100mb can be uploaded and will remain on the site for 15 days. The TOS does declare, however, that a file may be downloaded a "reasonable number of times" after which point it may automatically be deleted, though the specific number isn't mentioned.

With that in mind, Share1t is probably best suited to small(ish) uploads that you'd like to share with a few select people. Still, it's an uncomplicated, fast service and handy enough to bookmark just in case.

Thanks, William!

Let's start with the premise itself: Groundhog Day meets Memento. The game experience revolves around 'days': you explore the world and the clock slowly ticks towards the evening. You bounce around picking up gems and talking to the denizens of 'Level Upland'. Eventually you feel tired and head back to ...
