A while back I created a little utility to upload files to MediaFire which is a file hosting service. MediaFire supports uploading of files up to 100 MB in a free account with unlimited storage, and is in my opinion one of the best free online storage possibilities out there.

It has galleries for pictures, nag free FAST downloads, sharing options, file manager the works.

It now also has a paid option which has additional features.

The news is that they added in a Flash uploader which makes it possible to smoothly upload a lot of files through there web interface which makes my previous upload utility obsolete, or at least I think so.

If you would like to see the utility updated or think it still has a right to be here, please let me know but for me the itch is probably scratched for now :)
