YouSendIt -- A Solution For Sending Large Files?

YouSendIt offers a service where, apparently for free and not even requiring a registration and/or exchange of registration information, you can send attachments of up to 1 GB to anyone you want.

You type in the recipient's e-mail address, browse to the file you wish to send, and then click Send.

YouSendIt puts the file on their server and sends a note to the recipient notifying them that this attachment is waiting for them to download and gives them the link to retrieve it.

This may be handy, especially if you're interested in sending something to someone whose e-mail provider has low-ish limits on attachments it will allow on its service.

I have tried it a couple times and it worked like a charm.
