I was previously using the online file storage service of Windows Live SkyDrive, with 5GB of space, which is pretty good. However, the individual file limit is 50MB, so it's almost impossible to upload a movie video. Therefore, I wanted to try other online storage services. Fortunately, 35 Kilometers translated an article from lifehacker.com that selected the top 5 best online file sharing services out of 200 nominations. These services with large capacity, fast speed, and ease of use can help you share music with friends or help you share important documents with colleagues.

You can directly share documents with friends on your desktop by creating a shared folder on your desktop.
