Adobe Share Beta - Flex Document Manager

Posted on 7:30pm 2/17/2008 by Bruno Silva in Adobe, Software, Utilities, Web

Adobe has a web-based service in Beta stage that allows you to share documents. It is based on Flex technology. You upload your files, choose with whom you what to share them, and if you want them to be public (to everyone you give the direct URL).

Adobe Share Beta - Upload

Your files will be available in your library. You can preview your files, download them, share them or delete them.

Adobe Share Beta - Library

If you want you can share your public files by adding a link to the URL or by embedding the given code into your webpages (which shows a flash-enabled preview of the shared file).

The preview pane only works with images and PDF documents.

I just love the User Interface. It has the usual Adobe clean look&feel. According to this webpage the maximum space available to each user is 1Gb. A REST-based API is also available.
