I recently launched www.64.surf that uses the URL to send files, obviously a much smaller file size, but was fun to build regardless.

Basically, base64 encode the file, inject it in the URL and then allows you to share it with other people.

If the URL contains the file, what is the difference between sending the URL and the actual file contents in practice?
