Introducing Civil Netizen

February 2, 2008

I bet a lot of us make use of our emails to send important attachments to our friends, relatives and especially to our bosses, right? Well, if you DO send such emails, you will realize that there is a very serious flaw in this - the attachment size. Yes, how many times have you send a huge file across but only to have it rejected by the other side? Just imagine the time wasted when you send the file and the time wasted again when you need to figure out how to solve it. Don’t you just hate it when there are problems with your email? However, it’s not the fault of the ISPs or your email host. Why? Because the design of email in the beginning. Email was designed to send text messages across the network and it is just not meant to be send and receive huge files.

I may have the solution for you, it’s called Civil Netizen. It’s like those file sharing software or maybe like MSN’s file sharing feature. The difference is that it can send and receive huge files (that’s up to 4GB!), unlike most other software. You can transfer a large number of files with just a few clicks. They have something called a “parcel” and all the files are contained inside these parcels. It also allows you to preserve the file structure of your folders. The most important of all is that it is very secure. And you do it privately. You can share those company files with your co-worker in another laptop using Civil Netizens and find very secure. And transferring files is as easy as clicking a few links. If you are worried about transferring of huge files, you needn’t be. This software allows you to resume interrupted transfers like those FTP Clients. It will keep on trying till your files are delivered. Oh, did I mention it is free?

Civil Netizen feels a lot like those P2P software like those P2P software you see on the Internet. However, this is not a P2P software. It is meant for people to transfer files securely.
