Share Large Files with Memeo Send

If you need to get a file to a co-worker, partner, or client, you've got a million options that range from e-mail to USB key to an online share like Skydrive or Box.net. But if you need to share really big files - too big for normal channels - then there's Memeo Send, a sort of FedEx for digital files.


Memeo Send has self-consciously modeled itself after an overnight shipping service, from the UI to the delivery confirmation. You can drag any quantity of files into Memeo's packing slip interface, address it (the program taps into your PC's address book), and send. The recipient can retrieve the files via a Web browser or, if installed, the client software. And here's where Memeo does something you won't find in e-mail or a shared folder: You can get confirmation that the files were "delivered."

You get three sends for free; after that, it costs 99 cents per shipment. (And it's always free for the recipient.) What do you think, folks? Is it worth even 99 cents for unlimited, secure file transfers with confirmation receipt? Would you pay for a service like this?
