Pando

Christopher — Sat, 03 Oct 2009 11:31:57 +0000

Pando will make it easy to send large files to friends or family.

Usually when I need to send a large file to someone, I put it on my own server and then send them a url to visit and download it. Basically, this is what Pando will allow you to do. You drop a file on your Pando application, put in a message and an email address and the file is uploaded and a message is sent to the receiver letting them know that they can come and get it.

The other benefit to Pando is your inbox won’t get clogged up with the large files. You are only sent a small “.pando” file and that will point you where to go to get the full file.
