2.1 What is eSnips?
eSnips is the one place where you can share all your passions; you can upload music, photos, videos, documents, files, and anything you find on the web – images, links and html pages. You control who you share it with and how by setting privacy and sharing preferences on every folder. You can also place your art, creations, or anything else you’ve uploaded, for sale as part of the eSnips Marketplace.
eSnips is all about helping you find others who share your passions. From religious sermons to hip-hop remixes, eSnips will help you discover new content and the people who share your interests. eSnips creates a community around your passions by making it easy to find others and for others to find you.
eSnips is for anyone who has anything they want to share with others, whether it’s the entire world or a select group. eSnippers share their home videos and photos with their family, share their artwork with the world, sell jewelry they created, plan their family's next trip to Europe, share party photos with friends, share their recordings in the karaoke community, collect their personal research, upload original music and remixes, and even read their poetry.

Whatever you are interested in, you will find others who share your passion on eSnips.
2.2 What do I get when I open an eSnips account?
Anyone who signs up for an eSnips account receives 1GB of free storage to upload and share files. Each account can host multiple folders, where each folder is a separate sharing environment, where you decide what to share and with what audience. For example, you can create a folder to share photos with only your family members and another folder, which is public, to share your artwork with the world.

We provide the free space – what you do with it is up to you!
2.3 What can I upload and share on my eSnips account?

You can share anything on eSnips:

  • Audio and video files - any type of multimedia file, including MP3, AVI, Flash
  • Photos and images – including GIF, JPG, BMP
  • Documents, spreadsheets and presentations – including
  • Web snippets and links – use eSnips unique snipping tool to capture partial or entire web pages, text and images from any website, and links, with or without their associated text and pictures.
2.4 How is eSnips different from other online social/sharing sites?

eSnips is unique in several ways:

  • eSnips is the one place on for any and all digital content.  Do you really want to keep your photos on one site, your videos on a second, and your music still on a third one? eSnips allows you to share everything in one place.
  • An eSnips account allows you to share anything with anyone - giving you options on what you want to share and who you want to share it with.
  • eSnips creates the community around you and your interests, by bringing like-minded people who share your interests to you.
2.5 Is it all free, including the 5GB storage?
The service we're offering right now is completely free. That includes the storage. We support our free service with advertising, which we try to keep as unobtrusive as possible. Later on we intend to offer extra, value-added services but you’ll decide if you want to adopt them or just keep using the free version.
2.6 How can you offer a free service? What's in it for you?
We truly believe that there is a real need for this sort of service. We think that the mere fact that you use it, enjoy it, and invite others, will quickly create a community that will allow us to generate revenue from advertising.
