Wordpress Bloggers Can Upload Files to DivShare & Reduce Hosting Bills

DivShare is an online file hosting service like Rapidshare or Megaupload but offers some very unique advantages:

» The uploaded files stay online forever. [Rapidshare deletes the file after some period of inactivity]

» You can upload unlimited number of files and each file size can be as large as 200 MB. [Rapidshare has a 100 MB limit]

» The interface is pretty clean, very fast and intuitive.

» DivShare automatically creates an image gallery of all the pictures that you upload to their web servers.

Now, here's some great news for bloggers, especially those who are on the Wordpress platform.

You can host your files on DivShare and link them in your blog posts. That saves precious storage space on your server and since the files will be served from DivShare, you save on those monthly bandwidth bills as well.

Co-founder David Altschul just informed that DivShare has launched a Wordpress plugin that allows you to upload files directly from your "Write a Post" page to your DivShare account, and insert them into your post with a single click.

Wondering what's their business model ? Not sure but are already using Adsense to monetize their website and who knows, a pro version may be in the works for uploading files even greater than 200 MB.

Some third-party Facebook hacks like "Facebook Sync" (for Mac) and "Facebook Downloader" (for Windows) did allow you to download your Facebook friends' names, emails, mobile phone number and profile photo to the desktop but they were quickly removed for violation of Facebook Terms of Use. How to Download Contacts from Facebook There are still some options to take Friends data outside the walls of Facebook wall.
