Dropbox is a cloud based file sharing/upload service which offers users to upload, access, and share files from any computer or between computers.Suppose you want to share a file or folder with some friend over Instant Messenger(IM) or want to share a file with other users on the forum quickly then you can make use of DropBox.

To make it convenient for you to move/copy files & folder on dropbox public folder to share with other friends you can do this in two ways.I’ll just brief you how you can achieve this.You can make use of Dropbox Public which adds a shortcut to send to context menu or by making use of Dropbox plugin where you would need to just drag the file to upload and it gets uploaded to dropbox public folder.

How to use Dropbox Public

  • Download Dropdown public app and then extract it to folder and double click on the  dropbox-public.exe
  • It will ask if you want to add it in "Send To" explorer context menu, select Yes to add it and select No to remove it.

It works on Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7.Other app is by the name Dropbox Plugin.To share files just drag one file, or more on DropBoxPlugin.exe. & files will be automatically copied into your DropBox public folder, auto-synchronized and URL for these files will be put in clipboard.When the files and folders are uploaded, the link to access them is automatically copied to your Windows clipboard, thus the user only has to paste it and start sharing it with friends.

Now what is missing is the ability to email.MailDrop is an application that expands the scope of Dropbox to the inbox. Now you can upload files to Dropbox by email. Any emails with the label 'Dropbox' will automatically be sent to the 'MailDrop' folder in your Dropbox. Now files can be put on Dropbox from your mobile device or from any computer without having to login to Dropbox.MailDrop has a great advantage when compared with traditional methods of uploading files to Dropbox.

MailDrop needs to be running on your main desktop computer, it will check your email account for all emails that have been labeled as 'Dropbox' and automatically send the attached files to the 'MailDrop' folder inside the main 'My Dropbox' folder.It works with all email services that supports IMAP, but has been tested extensively on Gmail. In Gmail, folders are referred to as labels, so anything with the label 'Dropbox' will be downloaded.Make use of the free space with coolness.
