A Mac status bar app for quickly sharing files and links.
Rhea
Rhea is a status bar utility for the Mac that allows you to quickly and easily upload files and shorten links, similar to CloudApp and Dropshare. It uses Dropbox (powered by TJDropbox) for file storage and Bitly for shortening links.
File Upload
You can drag files into the status bar to upload them to Rhea.
Or, if you have a file path or file URL copied to your clipboard you can upload it via Rhea’s dropdown menu.
Dropbox links are copied to the clipboard while files are being uploaded in the background, so it’s very quick.
