Pretty Cool Stuff :)<p>Here are some observations & Questions :<p>1. Looks like you decide the number of chunks the file is divided into before you start uploading. How do you decide this ? (ie) the algorithm used ..is the chunk size a function of network's bandwidth & throughput . Or is it a standard chunk size ?<p>flowChunkNumber:6
flowChunkSize:512000 <<===== This one here
flowCurrentChunkSize:512000
flowTotalSize:5005687
flowIdentifier:5005687-emc_celera__Command_Reference_Manualpdf
flowFilename:emc_celera__Command_Reference_Manual.pdf
flowRelativePath:emc_celera__Command_Reference_Manual.pdf
flowTotalChunks:9<p>2. How do you generate the random file name ? I suppose this is one the standard algorithms. Curious<p><a href="http://dropjar.com/#"3MaYQK4"" rel="nofollow">http://dropjar.com/#"3MaYQK4"</a><p>3.I suppose you are using statcounter & google analytics. What are some of the parameters you are looking at your end? (like #of files uploaded etc., )<p>4. Even if I change the name of the file (or) move the file to another location when the upload is inflight ; it still sucessfully continues to upload the originally intended file.Are you precaching this somewhere ? Is there a copy stored in the temp folder ?<p>5. What are you using to compress the files before they start upload ?
Very similar to MinBox which I've used a bit. Minbox is cool because it works on your desktop and allows the recipient to trigger the donwnload while its being sent. Haven't used it in a while though <a href="https://minbox.com/" rel="nofollow">https://minbox.com/</a>
Nice app. Plupload (<a href="https://github.com/moxiecode/plupload" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/moxiecode/plupload</a> ) is an open source library that also allows you to upload large files. I've used it in projects before, such as a file explorer for Cloud Storage services (Box, Dropbox, etc.) that also allows for local file upload: <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/pseudonumos/PB565/embedded/result/" rel="nofollow">http://jsfiddle.net/pseudonumos/PB565/embedded/result/</a>
That's pretty nice. I recently slapped a (buggy) sharing application together for Android so my wife could "send" large(-ish) videos to friends and family directly from the Gallery/Photo app, via the "Share" option, since files of a certain size are disallowed from the e-mail service she uses.<p>I think this is far more useful for these kinds of "one-off" shares than going through a series of third-party gates like Dropbox for example, especially if the intended recipients don't have accounts on those sites.
Nice UI design, I really like the bottle theme! It's a well-implemented service, with value in its simplicity and singular function. I’ve seen a many, many similar services start the same exact way and they ultimately all add features and complexity, which takes them away from the simplicity that make them interesting.
Shameless plug: I've created a library[0] that is similar in scope, but uploads to Amazon S3. If you find dropjar interesting you might want to check out this too.<p>[0] <a href="http://mule-uploader.com/" rel="nofollow">http://mule-uploader.com/</a>
Odd, I upload a file and it doesn't seem to give me any sort of link.<p><a href="http://imgur.com/LpwJ3Nn" rel="nofollow">http://imgur.com/LpwJ3Nn</a><p>Running Chrome 36.0.1985.143 on OS X
Cool service. It fits a nice niche as I have coworkers who don't have Dropbox (or Drive, Box, etc.) installed, so I can just send them a link to this site instead. I'll test it with them and see how it goes.
