Dropbox is a very useful tool for sharing large files. It is a free service that allows you to upload and access files from any computer, anywhere, through your personal username and password. In addition, if you install the app on your mobile device (phone, touch, iPad) or your laptop, Dropbox will keep all files synchronized. Every change made in the file on your iPad will be automatically updated to your laptop and every other device.
This sounds a lot like Google Apps, right? Well there is a big difference. The maximum size of any file you want to upload to Google Apps is 2MB. The file size you upload to Dropbox is only limited to the amount of space you have in your Dropbox account. You begin with 2GB of free storage and can get more space by inviting other people to get an account.
Here is a link to a handout on how to accept an invitation from someone to get a Dropbox account.
