I am an enthusiastic user of the free version of
www.dropbox.com
Easy to set up with a clear, uncluttered interface.
It is possible to have "shared" folders where friends have
access to the files stored there, as well as private
folders for your own use.
For a friend to have access to a "shared" folder they have
to install their own copy of Dropbox.
If you only have a one or two files to share then Dropbox
will give you a URL direct to the particular files which
the friend can then download, without having their own
Dropbox account.
The instructions and help given on the Dropbox site are
excellent.
