MacWorld: SeeFile, file sharing tools for Mac

Here’s a tool to try for web workers, the SeeFile file sharing tool.

Most remote workers need to access files anytime, anywhere to do some presentation and client’s project update. Personally, I maintain an FTP server to do regular backup and upload updates for my clients. Sometimes, when I am on a rush to setup my FTP, I usually upload my files via email as draft to have a copy of my important files. With this, I can access it anytime and anywhere. It may sound so “classic” but it’s effective but not that efficient. Although, I sometimes use flash drives to bring my files with me. That’s it.

After monitoring for some MacWorld produtive tool releases, I found SeeFile. It’s a productivity tool for small business which can bring business to a more productive approach. Here’s a quick product overview:

Seefile software transforms your Mac into a web server, allowing you
to share your media files online and stay in constant communication with
your customers and/or coworkers. Seefile includes an elegant web interface
