In addition to using DropBox to sync files between your Macs, you can also use it to share files with friends. You can make a file public and provide your friends with a link to it. You can also share a folder between friends with DropBox accounts. There is even a special photo galleries folder that will allow you to share photos easily.

I've been using DropBox for at least 2 years now. It's a great tool! Thanks for the well organized tutorial.
I thought iCloud was out or coming out soon, so I'm wondering why Dropbox, and not the new iCloud. Would you please explain? Thanks so much for all you do.
iCloud does not include this functionality. In fact, it is much more like iDisk, which is part of MobileMe -- one of the parts of MobileMe that will be going away when MobileMe is gone in June.
Thank you. Now it makes sense.
Hi Garry,
What's the best way to protect dropbox folders?
Protect in what way, specifically? What is it you are trying to do?
