Adobe Hosted Services

This week at Adobe MAX 2007 I attend a session about Adobe Hosted Services. They've named it SHARE and you can find it at http://share.adobe.com/. Currently the service touts the following features:

• Share your documents online
• Send documents without e-mail attachments
• Embed your documents in web pages
• Access your documents from anywhere
  

I've been exploring it a little bit. It's a Flex front end on what looks like a Java Struts web back end. Not that any of that really matters. What matters is how we can use this new service and what makes it different from other hosted services.

For starters I can share a URL to a document or even embed it. Check it out.



That pretty slick stuff. But wait, there's more. It's developer friendly. Check out the API at http://api.share.adobe.com/
