Otherwise, you could set a machine up with FTP on an odd port, and enable your router to allow passage to that port for the duration of the gets or sends.

(Lots of variables involved)

I had thought that people used yousendit.com to exchange 350MB files. Where's the root of the lack of love?

I know I have. It takes a long enough time that I usually think it's frozen, but it goes through eventually.

An hourglass that lasted all night.

Maybe it's just playing hard to get? I got nothing, other than maybe a different browser.

The iTunes Music Store keeps coming with the hits lately. NBC has added a ton of old shows to the catalog including Knight Rider, Adam-12, Dragnet, and Alfred Hitchcock Presents. Looks like NBC is offering a show from each decade from the 1950s on, just to make sure Dad gets his Dragnet, and your older brother gets his Knight Rider. Hopefully people will realize that they need Hasslehoff on their iPod video shouting at KITT about some problem. Ahh NBC, you treat us well. The episodes are $1.99 apiece, which is a great deal for a 45-minute-long commercial-free episode of a show.

if you bypass the inbox and save files in Draft in gmail, you can go over the 10MB limit, however...I'm not sure how much more over the limit you can go. I saved a 45 MB attachment there for a short period of time.

here's another idea if the computer you want to send the file to (and the computer sending the file) will be attached to the internets for awhile:

foldershare.com

this is fucking awesome and the file (and whatever else you put in the shared folder) will be copied over to the friend's computer.

foldershare.com looks interesting. You've used it, LeNub? I'll ask my friend if he wants to give it a go.

I maintain a .mac account and use my iDisk for moving large files like that. It works nicely cross platform, but it is a paid service. $99/yr I think. The default is 1 GB of storage and I have the upgraded 2 GB service. It's been a life saver for me.

Jon, I use it every day to link my home computer and my office computer. I put files in a folder on my office computer and it sychronizes the folders across both computers. I think it works really well.

Microsoft just bought it, so use it while it is still free.

Have you heard of anyone getting an "Assertion Error" when it tries to go to the web page to log in to your account? That just happened to my friend, although we haven't tried to share anything yet (and I haven't even installed it at my end yet).
