Now documents, photos, and videos can be shared simply by creating and sending a link to friends, family, or colleagues, whether they are Dropbox users or not.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re always looking for ways to make life easier and solve the basic problems people face everyday,&#8221; said Drew Houston, CEO and co-founder of Dropbox. &#8220;Sending files has always been a painful process, but now with Dropbox, sharing with friends, family, and colleagues is effortless.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Dropbox links allow people to easily view documents, photos, and videos in a beautiful full-browser display without any setup. Business presentations, home movies, and even entire folders can be opened and viewed instantly without having to sign in, download anything, or open files separately.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How it works<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>From the Dropbox desktop, web, and mobile applications, the &#8220;Get link&#8221; button generates a unique link to a file or folder. The link can then be quickly sent to another person. For Dropbox users, opening a link will provide the option to instantly save the file to their Dropbox.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Today we&#8217;re excited to add instant sharing to Dropbox,&#8221; said Jeff Bartelma, Director of Products. &#8220;We&#8217;ve simplified the process of sending files to just a few seconds and eliminated the need for email attachments.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Dropbox has been refining this feature in beta since last year and today, with many improvements, it is available to all users.
