Sending big files

Ever wonder how to send big files to your friend?

Try www.pipebytes.com. You can send any size of file, without any software install. Of course, you will need the web browser.

Your friend could start downloading the file as you are uploading.

Pipebytes claims that this service is time saving and secure. The transfer will started as soon as your friend starts the download process, since Pipebytes does not store the file. Pipebytes will only act as a data transfer pipe, that allows users to directly transfer files between peers.

However, in case of interrupted transfer, resume is not supported. One solution is break the file into small chunks, before sending using Pipebytes.

Another problem is, that you can only send file to one person at a time.

About the "secure" term, I think if we are on a corporate network (even home network), the system administrator (parents) could potentially intercept the data. As

In spite of all that, Pipebytes provides a free, real time, ad supported service, for users to transfer big files to one friend, without saving the file in the server, initially.

Happy transferring.
