I downloaded Pando, the new file sending hotness, to give it a try.
My brother Matt and I tried sending files and got nowhere. I looked at the support forums, tried opening ports, and other things to get it to work. No dice.
I think Matt summed it up best: "this thing sucks... just doesn't work.... the files are in the queue, but the transfer never starts.... weak....". I have to agree.
Perhaps the 'release in beta' meme should be changed to 'release in beta if it actually works'.
Update May 22, 2006: Read about Happy Pando

You can talk, or text chat, or send files. Works great.
Oh, it's free.

Anyways, the sites there, but not like it was, just hurricane pictures. But i like what you've done with your site. Are you using custom software that you did yourself, or is it something i can just download? I'd like to give it another go...
