Free Online File Sharing and Storage

I rarely share any file before accept for my own use or for work related file when it is too large to attach in email. But today I need some extra feature from any of the online storage service. Beside the ability to publicly share my files, I need to manage my file that can be place in online folder and I need to know how many download for each file. There are a lot of choices out there but how do I know which is the most suitable for my usage? So the hunt begin...

For easy future reference, I'm going to arrange the online storage service into several categories:

• File Manager & GUI
  
• File Size Per Upload
• Storage Quota
  
• Statistic

Rapidshare
One of the most popular file sharing out there. You can upload straightaway as a guest or subscribe their Premium Account to download a with a speedy connection. You also can get a Free Premium Account by collecting RapidPoints. You just need to place your file in Collector's Zone in order to get the points.

• File Manager & GUI
  Downloadable desktop application but this is strictly for Premium Account (paid).
  
• File Size Per Upload
  200 MB per file upload or a batch of file with sum not exceeded 200 MB
  
• Storage Quota
  Unlimited
• Statistic
  Perhaps this is available for Premium Account

Megaupload
Perhaps Megaupload is one of the leading provider of online storage. Megaupload allows to send files up to 500MB, offers ad-financed free and affordable premium online storage, sophisticated uploading and downloading dekstop tools, and high-volume business accounts including pay-per-download. Megauploadalso rewards you with a point for each dowloaded file.

• File Manager & Member Dashboard GUI
  Provides the online and desktop file manager (Mega Manager). The online dashboard is flash based.
  
• File Size Per Upload
  1024 MB
  
• Storage Quota
  Unlimited
  
• Statistic
  Available for Free or Premium Member. As for the free membership, the statistic consist of download hits based global / country popularity.
  

eSnips
It used to be my favorite storage, eSnips is a social media sharing site that provides 1GB of free storage to upload any type of file. Files can be organized into folders and for each folder you can determine a different privacy setting. Folders can be private, shared with a group or public. However, the current auto copyrighted materials detection is completely suck. You can't upload script or code snippet anymore. The engine will automatically block it even if you ZIP it.

• File Manager & Member Dashboard GUI
  Available with some Ajax touch
• File size per upload
  100 MB
  
• Storage Quota
  1 GB
• Statistic
  Basic view counts with no of user's ratings and favorite
  

divShare
Uploaded files stay online forever. Or course it comes with pop-up / pop-under ads page.

• File Manager & Member Dashboard GUI
  The dashboard is simple with some Ajax touch. However the public download page is full of ads. A little bit off to me.
  
• File Size Per Upload
  200 MB
  
• Storage Quota
  5 GB
  
• Statistic
  Simple download counts

MediaFire
MediaFire allows free unlimited uploads, unlimited downloads, unlimited bandwidth, multiple simultaneous downloads and you have an option to upload a file without creating an account. But the free account is not bad either. My kind of favorite online storage service.

• File Manager & Member Dashboard GUI
  Very organized online file manager. You can creatte unlimited folder and multiple files per single upload session with Ajax touch. The public download page is uncluttered with ads with clear download link.
• File Size Per Upload
  100 MB for free account, 10 GB for MediaPro (paid member)
  
• Storage Quota
  Unlimited
  
• Statistic
  Simple download counts for free account. For the MediaPro a complete set of statistic are available (popularity, geolocation & refferers)
  

Box.net
It is a service that allows you to have 1GB of free online storage without ads. That's right, no ads. The details plan can be view here. Box.net easily becomes my favorite due free of ads and clutter.

• File Manager & Member Dashboard GUI
  Very much similar to MediaFire with Ajax. The public download page has no ads at all.
  
• File Size Per upload
  10 MB
• Storage Quota
  1 GB
• Statistic
  Basic download counts.
