Pando Networks Inc. has launched a file sharing tool that allows consumers to send large files via emails such as digital media – home movies, folders of family photos and business presentations. Pando users can attach files of up to 1GB.
"Every computer user has experienced the frustration of trying to send large files via email," said Robert Levitan, Pando co-founder and CEO. "Pando’s intuitive, drag-and-drop interface allows users to send personal media – files and folders – to anyone with an email address, regardless of his or her computing skill level. As a viral product with great consumer benefit, Pando can accelerate the sharing of home videos, photos and large business documents over the Internet for users worldwide."
Using expanded BitTorrent technology, the Pando application bypasses email servers and clogged inboxes to transport large files and folders directly from senders’ to recipients’ computers.
Until now, Pando has been in a closed, invitation-only beta test, during which time Pando users could invite friends to download the application. During its five-month closed-beta period, and with no publicity, Pando said it became a viral success story with well over a half-million installs. Pando claims, to date, it has delivered 1.5 petabytes (a billion-and-a-half megabytes) of data.
