My manager sent me the link to his DropBox, I’m able to send in the files daily. Using Dropbox on my laptop is super convenient, no need to mail out SD cards anymore.

Sync can sometimes throttle network bandwidth. Have to mirror the entire folder on your hard drive. Would be better if you could selectively sync files.
