With a simple web interface and a recently-released desktop app, Streaky is one of the most complete file sharing platforms around. On Streaky.com, you can send large files (up to 2GB) for free just by uploading them, and entering your email address, and the email address of the recipient. You can also add a short message, so that if you’re sending a file to a person you’ve just become acquainted with you’re not running the risk of the file being deleted because he just doesn’t know where it’s coming from. And in case you’re sending something that you don’t want other people to see, you can instruct Streaky to have the file erased after it has been downloaded.

And the newly-launched desktop application simplifies the sharing of files even more. A feature named “APP 2 APP” lets you send files as quickly and easily as you would send a message using a service like Skype. There’s no limit on file size or speed, and a private link is generated for every single file that you’re sending over.
