Pancake.io Is a Dead Simple Way to Host a Web Site from Your Dropbox Account
Pancake.io is a web-based app that makes it dead simple to use your Dropbox account as as simple web host.
Signup for an account and Pancake.io creates a folder in your Dropbox. You can modify the page in one of two ways: you can simply put files into the folder and use the simple template provided by Pancake.io to share them or you can edit the template (located in the Pancake.io folder) to customize the page.
Hit up the link below to read more about Pancake.io and take it for a test drive.

hmmmm…not quite sure of the value of this, unless you know zero coding and want to follow the “pancake code” … why not just learn the basic HTML tags and host in your /Public folder? It seems to be window dressing on something that already works.
Um, there is a pretty low bandwidth limit per file on dropbox…. this doesnt seem smart.
Kodess, most websites don’t get millions of hits though. =)
i can think of heaps of reasons to use this. i dont want to learn html and setup hosts just to share a few things out, especially when its only temp or you want to easily access an ever changing file or page.
@horizonguy, because the rest of us aren’t code geeks like you :p
