Posted by Anonymous on 5/1/2009 at 8:39 PM ET 250 Points
Hi,

I'll ask You, what will be a good idea for sending bigger >100MB files to a someone else by friendly user website?It would't be a rapidshare etc, this site will help people to send a file e.g. Family pictures, documents without using email or ftp or p2p via ssl encrypted service. Your opinion will be highly appreciated.

    Who is your target audience and what is the most important benefit for them? Have you developed the business plan for your product? How will you make money, or what other objective do you want this to achieve for you? Do you have investors or significant funding to launch the business?

    Our opinion regarding the concept would only be from a marketing standpoint. We are not technology experts and can't begin to offer useful opinions about the viability of a business we don't understand fully.

    We'll be glad to help with marketing input if you'll give us more information and be more explicit about what you're trying to accomplish.

    There are a number of free services that do this already (https://yousendit.com, https://www.sendthisfile.com/, https://www.filesend.net/, etc.) and some charge for additional services (confirmation when someone opens the file, password protection, etc.).

    Take a look at their interfaces for ideas.

    wouldn't you be competing with Google?
