P2P File Sharing, but not torrent!!!

37637598 on 14/5/2009 at 22:36

I'm working on a project with a friend who is out of state, and it requires us both to constantly send files back and fourth. We just use MSN messenger to transfer files, but I'm wondering if there's some kind of program so I can just drag and drop files, or save them to a specific folder that will automatically sync with his computer, and his with mine. This way when I'm making audio files, each time I'm done, I can save them to this folder and they'll automatically transfer to his computer.

Any ideas?

P.S. I googled this and the only thing that comes up are torrent programs.

(https://www.foldershare.com/) FolderShare (Microsoft) seems to be the solution, other products were shareware such as (https://secure.logmein.com/home.asp?lang=en) LogMeIn software. Good luck. :)

(http://drop.io) drop.io should fit the bill, though it is slightly different than what you want.

I've used (http://www.getdropbox.com/) dropbox with good success for a very similar application.
