Description

Drop.io founder and CEO Sam Lessin talks about how his company's file-sharing service takes advantage of the "real-time Web," also known as the "Now Web," in this episode of The Deal's Behind the Money online video show. Drop.io creates online environments, or drops, for people to share videos and other large files privately. Drop.io recently added the ability to share files in real-time and on Thursday, Drop.io added the ability to share presentations. The New York startup has raised $3.9 million from DFJ Gotham Ventures and RRE Ventures. Click here to see Part 1 of our conversation with Sam Lessin, in which he talks about the New York startup community and the sense of kinship among 20- and 30-something entrepreneurs, including Charles Forman (OMGPOP, previously called Iminlikewithyou), Mike Hudack (Blip.tv), Rob Kalin (Etsy Inc.), David Karp (Tumblr Inc.), Charlie O'Donnell (Path101 Inc. and nextNY) and Nate Westheimer (AnyClip and NY Tech Meetup).
