WebDAV (Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning) is a way to share files over HTTP, much like you would use Samba or NFS. It has more limitations, and less speed, than filesystems like Samba or NFS, but with the proliferation of web servers and the ability to reach websites from multiple clients in various locations, WebDAV certainly has its appeal. Unlike Samba or NFS, which are best suited for local area networks, you can use an HTTP server anywhere in the world and likewise access it from anywhere.
