For Gnome (Pay attention to the video on the site):

Yes, thanks, I interested in, but it is often late to interest in something, when you need to share some files just now :)

There are nautilus plugins for this already, just not installed by default.

Can it be a uPnP media share? So music players and iTune can access it directly.

Why not just start sshd, and use the ssh:// protocol in Nautilus? Works reliably, secure, in seconds.

apart from Giver (mentioned above), Telekinesis seems to be a promising approach:
