We’re always on the lookout for things that make life easier. And when it comes to file and image sharing, we’re especially interested.
Culturezoo’s amazing Droplr Desktop is beyond simple when it comes to photo and text sharing and, as a bonus, is now available in an iPhone app (not free, but an affordable $3.99). With Droplr, you can drag and drop anything you want to share online with a short URL. One of the newly added options to Droplr that we think is especially cool is the ability to share your stuff with a custom, or “vanity” URL. Of course, you’ve gotta buy that, but that seems to be worth the investment, when it matters to you that your stuff is branded.
If you’re intruigued and want a short tutorial about all the awesomesauce that is Droplr, The Next Web won’t disappoint.
One downside, right now you’ve got to have a Twitter account to sign up and login, so for those folks not into the whole Twitter thing, that’s an extra step. But that’s rumored to be changing soon, so if you’re not using Twitter and/or not interested, you’ll probably get a chance reasonably soon to test the functionality of Droplr in other ways. And, shameless self-plug, if you’re reading this blog because of a link you saw on Twitter, dudes, follow us there and share your brilliance.
The upside: when a product is identified by Macworld as a Mac Gem, it’s pretty much a testimonial to the fact that you should check it out. We did – and we’re glad! Oh, and if you’re totally geeked out by this topic and want to discover more Mac Gems, check here for Dan Frakes’ (MacWorld’s resident Gem-meister) August 31, 2010 recs.
