Although this is very preliminary, neuros.tv now offers a chat/file transfer service on the LINK.
If you have a registered name on neuros.tv then you have a registered name for chat
From the desktop (minimize firefox) applications >> internet >> Pidgin Internet Messenger and populate the account with your username and neuros.tv as the server (as shown in the below screen shot) then add buddies (make sure to append neuros.tv to their neuros.tv username) and you should be good to go. One particuliarly nice thing about this is that there is an auto accept plug-in for pidgin that allows you to select buddies for whom pidgin will automatically accept files from.
This makes for a very handy way to xfer files that are just one to one (ie home movies and the like). I love this feature for sending movies of the kids to the grand parent's LINK because it's just automatic, they don't have to do anything and new videos just show up. I've long struggled with an easy way to get files to them (typically I just put them on a thumb drive and sneakernet them to them) and this solved my problem. Hopefully one of yours as well. Obviously my name on here is JoeBorn so feel free to say hello.
It's early, there are already a list of
known bugs but would love to get your feedback on it.
