File Server/Source Code Sharer

Here is an interesting idea from code project about creating a file server using web services.  http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/WSFileServer.asp#xx426600xx 

I'm kind of working on something similar to this in asp.net, except I'm not using webservices (I'm going to look into this).  Essentially what I'm working on is a file explorer that will show you a explorer style tree view of files/directories and when you click on a file it will display it.  It will display images, colorized .Net source code files, and if you click on a .Net assembly it will display a simple version of the object viewer (from VS.Net).  Where I think my project will be very useful is when you want to share a project online you will be able to just setup a virtual directory for your project and drop this single aspx file into the directory and then the files are viewable on the web.  It will be a great and easy way to share source code.

What do people think about this idea?
