long hiatus
it's been a long, long hiatus from the forums for me (I wonder how many of you remember me :P). so here's my story! I ended up leaving MIT my senior year and started a company (called Dropbox) with a couple of my friends from school and moved out to SF. it's basically a super, super simple way to share files across computers/other people. it works on windows, os x, and linux, so you all should give it a shot :)
here's a link to the site - http://getdropbox.com (grrr domain squatters) and here's a link to a digg article about us (which will hopefully make it to the top of digg with some help ;) http://www.digg.com/software/Dropbox...s_Linux_iPhone let me know what you all think! |
|
I use your program and think it's great. Well done. Pleasure to meet you.
I'll Digg it. |

http://www.getdropbox.com/about it's me (arash), really! :) |
wtf i tried it and not only did my computer crash, but my dog took a crap on the living room carpet. You got tech support for this?
|
Wow, you did DropBox? Awesome job...been checking out the beta after the TechCrunch speech. Tried to get in the tc50 promo code to no avail.
|
Congrats on the success.
|
welcome home.
|
Neat - I've been following the development for quite a while now. And I think that my early promotion earns me a free lifetime subscription once you guys start charging. :D
|
Hey.. that looks pretty nifty. Good work!
|
yeah i have been using Dropbox for a couple months, its been kickass.
|
Dude, Can you break into the the Chiefs opponents web sites and get the game plans for Herm. He needs the help, with x's and o's.
|
Can you buy the naming rights to arrowhead?? I can only imagine the nicknames we would receive league wide with it. sweet app though.
|
Congrats to one of ChiefsPlanet's own on your success! :toast:

|
By the way, wanted to say that I love Dropbox! Use it all the time and recommend it constantly.
|
Arash - I'm gonna need a small loan, my friend.
|
congrats, that's fantastic.
Please, buy the Chiefs. |
:clap:
|
spam?
I keed, congrats! If you need to hire a security adviser (not viral) keep me in mind, I can be bought. I not keed about that.... |
Awesome! I mean, hes no Dane, but hes close.
|
|
I use dropbox all of the time.
It's been a very big help for my small business and has definitely solved some problems. I've used it twice today. |
That's pretty badass, man. Definitely familiar with dropbox.
|
Damn. A 1%er used to be a regular on CP?
|
Dropbox Field at Arrowhead
|
Dropbox rules, you are the man!
|
Occupy Dropbox
|
Very cool, Arash. I like the Chiefs mention in your dropbox profile.
|
When he was a kid, he went by his real name on the Star board. It's hilarious that dude is a big internet wizard now.
|
I use it, and recommend it...Cool...Didn't know he was a CP'er...
I wouldve taken the 800 milly tho! |

Donate some money to CP plz.
|
$800,000,000? Damn, that's a lot of zeros!
Congrats on your success! :thumb: |
Should put a referral link with a little drop box saying chiefsplanet supports dropbox ,on the chiefsplanet site somewhere for chiefsplanet to get a little kick back.
|
Holy shit! I love Dropbox! Crazy that a CPer invented it. Now I feel even more inadequate than usual.
Who are the most famous CPers? Whitlock, this guy, me (Priest Holmes), of course. Who else? |

Stevie Ray is easily the most famous! That is freaking awesome though. I just told my wife the whole story and she looked at me like "meh" freaking women.
|
This is VERY cool.. Good work...

|
Too bad he's busy to post anymore. :sulk:

Arash why didnt you buy the kings and bring them back to kc for us?!?!?
|
Has not been seen since 2011. Come back Arash.

That is awesome! I use DB all the time. Congrats, Arash, and well-deserved!
|
Nifty, score one for the good guys!!
|
Wow. I missed this thread originally, and the 2011 bump. My company just implemented Dropbox as a quasi-cloud option to improve our mobile productivity. I researched probably a dozen options and demo'd 3 or 4 before finally settling on Dropbox. Not the cheapest by any stretch, but it was the most reliable by far.
Great product. Nice to see it has local ties as well. |

Congratulations on your success. :thumb:

Arash, I think you should buy a suite at arrowhead for next season and only let people in it who have CP names with "Chief" and the number 58 in it as of right now.

Well, damn. didn't know this. My dropbox is almost full. How about a chiefsplanet bonus? like say 25 GB???
|
Looks like he won on both life and the business considering Jobs is dead and Arash is still pulling down the coin.
