No idea why it asked for Flash.

At this moment the app works only in Chrome and Opera, because Firefox doesn't support HTML5 FileSystem API. There's a polyfill for that, but we had some issues with it, so we've decided to release it anyway. We'll continue working on Firefox support. The whole source code is available on GitHub (https://github.com/cowbell/sharedrop), so anyone can help.

This reminds me of how awfully behind IE is in HTML5 development. If even Firefox doesn't have this feature, IE might not get it for at least another 2 years. I don't think Microsoft has even announced support for WebRTC in any future IE version yet.

I'm running Chrome version 26.0.1410.63 on Linux, and I'm getting the not supported error message. Is there a minimum Chrome version?

I think it worked since 32. The current stable Chrome version is 33.
