If you upload files, images or videos to the internet on a frequent basis, File and Image Uploader (better known as FileUploader or FU) can be a great asset to have. It’s a less hyped but a very useful piece of software. This simple application allows you to upload files to over 250 (280 at time of writing) one click hosting services such as Rapidshare, Megaupload, Storage.to, HotFile, etc from the comfort of your desktop. If the file you need uploaded is an image, FU can take care of that too – it supports a number of image hosting services including BayImg, ImageShack and many more. The software comes absolutely free of charge and more importantly is not packed with malware, viruses, toolbars or any other form of crapware :)
Among the ~280 services supported by FU are dedicated file hosters such as RapidShare, Image hosting services such as ImageShack, specialized video hosting services such as Megavideo and even link spreader services like Uploadjockey. Desktop integration for most of the listed services work – you can upload files and retrieve the download link with no web browser involvement at all. Premium accounts and simultaneous uploads are also supported.
One of the best features of this small application is that it displays a summary of file hoster capabilities the moment you select one. While still a beta feature, this function allows quick access to information such as max supported file size, storage time, etc of each one click host and lets you make an informed decision as to use which service. You can even view a summary of all supported services through the ‘File hosters’ button on topmost toolbar.
On top of all this, FU comes with several built in utilities such as a downloader, Link checker and protect grabber, link sorter, universal file manager and several more. While these may not be advanced tools, they are certainly worth having.
