Zoho Viewer doubles as a Temporary File Hosting Service

Zoho Viewer is an online file viewer that lets you read PDFs, OpenOffice and Microsoft Office documents in the browser without even requiring you to sign-up for an account.

To get started, simply go to viewer.zoho.com, upload your file(s) and publish.  You can upload files as large as 10 MB in a single batch.

The other useful but lesser-known features of Zoho Viewer is that it also doubles as a temporary file hosting service for your documents.

While uploading a document to Zoho Viewer, you may specify an expiry time and the documents will automatically be removed from Zoho Servers when that time elapses. If you de-select the “Publish” option, the uploaded document will be deleted as soon as you close the current browser sessions.

Yes, there are quite a few alternatives that give you similar level of control but Zoho Viewer is a quick and hassle-free solution – you don’t have to sign-up and the recipients can view the documents in their browser itself without downloading them locally.
