MiMedia Upgrades Cloud-Based Online Platform
For uploading multiple files and folders up to 3GB

MiMedia, Inc. released a product upgrade
to accelerate file and folder uploads to the cloud.
Whether to backup music,
video or documents, MiMedia technology backups files on a home computer in real-time, while the java-based feature allows for data uploads from outside devices.
The MiMedia platform is designed for online
management of personal media, including online photo storage. With the new
feature, users can upload multiple files and folders, up to 3 GB, to the (m:)
drive for online storage. Comparable services limit file size to MB, do not
allow web uploads, and often require the upload to be run through a desktop
client.
The Java upgrade is accompanied by new file and folder
sharing capabilities, which allow users to grant outside access to documents
and collections of files. The recipient of a sharing link, sent by the user via
private email or social networks, is connected to the file or folder directly
on the MiMedia portal. Without needing to download anything, the recipient can
then access it within the web browser, using the default application on the
local computer. A download button gives the option to save the file on the
recipients hard drive.
"Web uploads have been limiting for many cloud services. This
new tool allows MiMedia users to add files from any machine, enabling larger
and more manageable web uploads", said Erik Zamkoff, CEO and founder of MiMedia.
"In addition, the file and folder sharing tool gives our users grade-A security
and control with the flexibility they want."
When a folder is shared, any files, sub-folders and
sub-files within that folder are also shared. Files added to the shared folder
are added to the shared file set. There is no limit to the types,
sizes or number of files that can be shared.
