I have the following page on my website where I can upload a file and have it automatically redirect to the file for quick sharing, which I mostly use for posting things here.
It works really well actually and has the added benefit of keeping all my stuff not only out of public sites but within my own VPC.

I used to use Cloud App, but didn't like their pricing change.
I now use Slingshot.app to automatically upload to Imgur

Should have noted this is what I currently use. Admittedly, I just discovered that you can group sets of images together. Wish I could edit these after the fact, though.

Dropbox?

Pro tip: Dropbox can automatically save Mac screenshots taken with
cmd + shift + 3. It places them in a new "Screenshots" folder and copies the share URL to your clipboard.How to set it up: dropbox.com/en/help/1964
Joe Ski, 8 years ago I do the same and love it. I used to use CloudApp, but I like dropbox method better and keeps all my files on that platform.
I like to use the shortcut Cmd + shift + 4, which gives you the crosshairs to crop just a section of the screen. Like this:

My other fave is
cmd + shift + 4then clicking on an application window to capture just the application :)

I use minus.com to upload quick screenshots and send links to colleagues.
I guess Skitch could be useful as well, but I feel like it's a little too involved for me.

Dropbox for public, ftp for private, using app called Monosnap

Why exactly?
ps. google drive.
When they're mixed in with actual photos you took, it's hard to track them down when you need to reference them.
Ah makes sense ;)
