title: Upload file to Windows Azure with only the link of the file is provided
body: <p>How can I upload a file in azure if I only have the URL of the file to upload. In this case, i 'm using <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/dropins/chooser/js" rel="nofollow">Dropbox file chooser</a> which selects file from dropbox and returns its url path.

  <p>Now we need the file to be stored in Windows Azure blob. What is the easiest way to do this without downloading the file first.
  I'm planning to use a asp.net web api for the uploading of file to azure blob.</p>
