hmm, interesting. Anyone tried it out yet?

Excellent! One of the best extensions ever.

N7.1 (version upgrade)

I don't really see the benefit of this plugin - can't you do the same thing with file transfers between IM apps?

 

[nigel07]

Seems as though this extension is much more secure than IM file transfers.

N7.1

IM File transfers require input from two sides AFAIK... this is file sharing...

Thanks, dualmeister

I wonder:

A) How fast the transfers go
B) What would the max file size limit be?

 

[dualmeister]

LOL I haven't even tried it yet. It said too many people were registering I must try again later
