Last Updated on Friday, 29 May 2009 05:15 Written by richardcqz Friday, 29 May 2009 05:15
Nowadays there are many way to transfer a file from sender to recipient such as MSN Live Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, Skype, AOL Instant Messenger and etc. Besides that you also can upload to a free file hosting website and give the URL to the person who need the file such as Rapidshare, Megaupload, depositfiles, Mediafire, Filefactory and etc.
Now there are a easy and simple way to send your files to recipient by using FilesOverMiles. As long as sender and recipient had Flash plugin installed, this is the easiest way to send files P2P.
If you think the URL that generated by FilesOverMiles are still longer enuff, then you can try these website to shorten your URL — NSFW.in, Bit.ly, U.nu, Awe.sm, Tinyarro.ws, SHUURL.com, 1link.in, Tr.im, Burnurl.com, TinyURL.com, ceSnipURL.com, and Su.pr.
Here is the way to use FilesOverMiles service, choose a file to share, and FilesOverMiles creates a hash-like URL for the transfer. Nothing starts moving until the receiver visits the URL and the client kicks in. Once that happens, your data is sent directly to the person at the other end with fastest speed because there is no intermediate servers slowing down the process. Plus, nothing is stored on a server. The only term and condition is when you are uploading or receiving the files, you are required to let the web page open. It is because when you close the web page, you need to do it all over again.

Adobe Lauch Online Presentation Apps
Last Updated on Thursday, 28 May 2009 05:13 Written by richardcqz Thursday, 28 May 2009 05:13
Adobe launched its own online office suite in Acrobat.com and has yet acquired 4 million of registered users, with 100,000 more signing up each week. As a part of Acrobat.com Labs, Presentations is still in early testing mode, with many features still to come.
Even though it’s lacking some key features, Presentations seems to have been made with the same determination to build a genuinely rich web application, rather than a stripped-down version of a desktop app with collaboration bolted on. As you’d expect from presentation-making software, you drag and drop the different shapes, text, and other media that you want to add into the presentation. One of the neat features offered by Adobe is the fact that different items can be bundled together in groups, so if a user wants to adjust a box of text, an image, and a video at the same time, the size of all the objects in that group will be adjusted accordingly, so that each element is still proportional to the other.
Besides that, Acrobat.com also offer different team members (and who hasn’t had to work with a team on a PowerPoint presentation at some point?) can work on slides at the same time, while seeing who else is working on the same thing. Unfortunately, there’s no instant messaging feature yet, but Larson says it’s coming.
