Convenient web server for quick and easy file sharing

Share files with non-tech'y people, I find this is an easy, trouble free way to do so:

ruby -run -e httpd . -p 7000

The above command spins up a little Ruby web server of the current directory, so you can quicky share data (send a link, or just tell someone to download from your IP)

Most people are familar with downing things .. so sending them a link and killing the server when they are finished I find very useful
