File sharing has been made easier with AllPeers. You can share webpages, photos, videos, music or any other files with friends and family. It does not matter what the file size is be it 100KB or 100GB. By creating your own sharing community, you can invite your friends and family to join in this system and supposed to be the best thing to happen to Firefox browsers. It works on Windows XP, Mac OSX and Linux OS. There are no uploads, no email attachments, no spyware, no adware and it is private and secure. That’s why uses are saying “AllPeers Rocks!†and you can download the public beta version.
The interesting news is that you can share any file without restrictions. And just like your friends have to be online to chat, you also have to be online so they can download the files you are sharing with them. AllPeers is free to use and they are using P2P technology which means it costs very little to run. On the downside, you don’t have to use AllPeers to have people accessing your PC. That’s why you should always use the latest security software like anti-virus, firewall and spyware remover. AllPeers does not create any additional risk and lets you decide which files to share with who and there’s no way for them to see your private files.
As reported in ABC News in the press page on 29th August 2006, AllPeers intergrates completely with Firefox. Simply by keying in e-mail addresses or AllPeers user names, you add friends and family to a contacts list, and once you’ve chosen a name from the list, you can start sending files via drag-and-drop. And early this year in March 2006, Mangrove Capital Partners and Index Ventures have once again joined forces to invest in AllPeers, a software vendor whose Firefox extension for private media sharing has recently sparked the imagination of the blogosphere as a potential “killer app†for the popular Firefox web browser. To download AllPeers, you need to have FireFox browser installed.
As all communications are encrypted using industry standard SSL, you can only share with people you know. Eventually, you can also make money by allowing people to sell or buy their content under their own terms. But this is not for the present. AllPeers is being built one step at a time. In conclusion, AllPeers is a nifty file sharing system that integrates well with Firefox browers regardless of the file size being sent.
