[FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]I have often clicked on links posted by users and some of these must have been stored on Google Drive.

[/FONT] [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]On my Google Drive under “Shared with me” I can see these links and the name of the person who has shared the link, which could well be their real name if that is how they registered with google.

[/FONT] [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]A lot of users use igmbb.com for images but is there a safe site to post say a link to a spreadsheet file rather than an image file and maintain anonymity for the poster?[/FONT]

    Dropbox allows you to share documents via a link, that link looks anonymous to me. However the app allows you to add, but not remove, such a link. Rather remiss of the app. The web version of Dropbox shows such publicly accessible links as a little link icon and there you can remove them.

    If I understand it correctly, shared folders are also possible, not sure how anonymous though.
