zip

fsp.zip holds an unique role. It doesn’t provide any websites, or web pages, but instead – it offers a place for downloading large files that I might otherwise have to send you. Email? servers are usually finicky about receiving large files. If I am going to send a lot of files, or if there is a large file that needs to be sent, I will pack all of the contents into a folder with the date/time stamp as the file name, and then send a link via email.

There are a couple of reasons for this. First, if someone else needs the file (assuming it is still online), you can provide the link to the person, so they can download the file. Second, there is a savings on your data. If you received my email while you were using your limited cellular data, then your would be eating into the data while the email “loads”. With providing a link, there is no download with exception of the email itself. You can always download the file when you are home, or at work – whichever offers unlimited data services.
