Delete. Mmmmm, freshly cooked spam! - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 17:39, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete Appears to pass the letter of WP:WEB per its WebWare 100 award, but the article pales in comparison to the other one-click hosting sites with their own articles (see FileFront, RapidShare, and YouSendIt). Kamek (talk) 20:59, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Delete G11 (spam). So tagged. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 22:01, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep. If we were to keep articles like meebo, Xdrive_(website)#Xdrive and omnidrive, box.net is clearly credible enough. I've been using it for 2 years, and very compelling arguments were made in its first Afd: Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Box.net. Notably, compared to these on Alexa, its traffic is very close to meebo's and greatly surpasses the others, and is credible enough to earn the webware award from CNet.

Strong keep. In terms of traffic, Box.net exceeds or matches (and is growing) formerly large sites such as Xdrive and Yousendit Alexa Rankings Box has had significant press recently given the announcement of their OpenBox platform and 6 million B round of funding. Box Press page

Notable Press Mentions:

Wall Street Journal: 1 , 2, 3
