I actually read about this earlier this week on this site here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=249823 I've used it several times already to exchange files with friends. Just today I sent a 700mb movie to a friend of mine - love the service...

On this note, I love the concept and the simple design but with all of that open real estate on the homepage you might consider one short explanatory blurb to greet visitors and pull them right in.
