I know for myself there has been times when I've been on a vacation and have wanted to send a large file of pictures of my trip to family and friends and it takes a long time to do plus when they get them they have their email boxes full of my pictures or they come in attachments and it takes forever to go through them. With driveway I can easily send them and it's done quickly and easily.
I can see this being great for businesses, also. If you need to send files to someone in a hurry and it's quite large this is the route to go.
Newer enhancements at driveway include faster uploads via desktop plugin, widgets for file/folder sharing, free storage up to 2GB.
