Get 25GB of free on-line storage @ Box.com WTF is box.com?

The steps:
  1. You need a working email address. gMail is always good to use.
  2. Sign up @ HelloSign (from Y-Combinator, the HelloFax folks; info from cnet)
  3. You'll get an email confirmation with a link to the Free Box.com promo.
  4. Click on the link & setup an account with Box.com.
  5. Box.com will send you a verification email with an activation link.
  6. Click on that link & your Free 25GB Box.com account is ready!
Note: You are not asked for any personal or financial info in any of the above steps. There will of course be cookies delivered to your computer/device.

UPDATE:
If you do not want the free HelloSign account, here's a direct link to BOX 25GB FREE account.

Is this a good substitute for MobileMe to host pictures now that Apple took away that convenient service?

Probably not for pictures. iPhoto was set up for MM, and vice versa. It was essentially a personal website for you. iPhoto may not know Box from a hole in the ground.

Best use of Box may be the replacement of iDisk storage. You will have to learn if syncing to your Mac is possible.

Looks to me that it's 5GB free; 25GB is $10 a month unless I am missing a special offer there.

This from someone who signed up:

Got some clarification from The Box. I have 25 G but can only upload 100MB at a time.
