Not bad for an engineer :-)
I came across an article in CNN Money by Om Malik, that talks about how to send large files to other people. (link via Dave.)
I got a new digital camera, and I've got a big folder of pictures I'd like to send to my parents. They have a Mac, so they can just suck them into iPhoto. I could use the Photocasting feature built into iPhoto, but I don't want to have to pay for a .Mac account just to transfer some files. I've been trying to figure out the easiest way to do this.
The Pando service is just the ticket. It is a little program for PC's or Macs that lets you upload a folder of files. It then sends a little .pando file via email to the recipient, who uses it as a key to download the same files. All free for now (love that business model ;-).
