Box.net have announced that their service is now available as a sidebar widget on the free
WordPress.com blogs.
This should be a very handy addition for the WordPress community, I know a couple of times in the past I have wanted an easy way to share a file on my
Whedon's World blog and have ended up posting a link out to one of the other file sharing services, now I will be able to do it right on my own site.

You can see it in use on my
Joss Whedon blog.

We’re very excited to announced that the Box.net widget is now a sidebar option on Wordpress.com, our favorite blog host. To add the Box widget to your sidebar, just click Dashboard -> Presentation -> Sidebar widgets -> then drag in the Box widget into the sidebar.
Awesome. |

[...] know, this is a new widget provided by WordPress.com and Box.net. You can read about it over at my UKStevieB [...]
What crap. I came with excitement hoping that there’s a cool plugin that allow easy upload, sharing, categorizing, and searching (full text) of XLS/PPT/DOC/PDF documents. But not quite, right? An external service, implemented as a stupid sidebar–great. NOT!
