Pando Launches File Sharing Tool

Broadband adoption may be soaring around the world, but sending large files over e-mail is still a painful chore. Pando Networks thinks it has the answer to that problem with a new secure file sharing tool designed for individuals and businesses. Pando users can share files up to 1GB in size.

Officially launched Monday, Pando uses BitTorrent technology to send files between users. Anyone with an e-mail address can receive a file from the service, which then activates the Pando client and starts the download. "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," said Pando CEO Robert Levitan.
