Earlier today TechCrunch.com reported that DropSend, a file sharing application, had announced itself for sale today.

The owners, Bristol Bath based, Carson Systems, says that “the site is profitable and growing, but that they don’t have enough time to focus on the service”. The most interesting thing will be to see how much they sell it for, who too and does it start a precidence with other start-ups looking to cash in on their small investment and sweat equity rather than try and seek external VC funding and shoot for the stars.
