Sharing files on internet directly from PC to PC is a nice idea to share a large file over internet. In this you do not need sign up for a third party file hosting service or setup a ftp service. This is easy to use and takes less time to set up than other available methods of file sharing. In this trick, send a URL to your friend and he will be able to see all your files instantly.
