This week’s vein of Online Ore can be found at http://drop.io/

Drop.io is a free online file sharing service with visual twist.  It has all the speed of an FTP transfer, but you can view images, share files and add comments directly from your web browser.

Quick sort options let you view lists by date added or type of file, and drop.io comes with easy to select pre-built templates optimized for sharing through twitter, presenting material in presentations, working in collaboration, or make the content exclusively available to friends or paying clients.

Wendy Wentzel, one of MB/I’s crackerjack designers tells me,

Drop.io is really useful when my husband needs to share photos with colleagues in an organized way. He and his fellow builders and landscapers won’t spend a lot of time figuring out complicated online tools, so it’s a good fit.

Tell us what you think of Drop.io!

Online Ore is an ongoing feature at The Gold Mine featuring tools and resources from around the web and wider world. If you know a site we should prospect please e-mail Aaron Rubman at Marissa Berger Interactive.
