Pownce Invites

By on July 4, 2007

Pownce Pownce is Kevin Rose’s (of Digg.com fame) latest venture. Its pretty much Scrapping meets Mini-Blogging meets File Sharing. Personally, I am not a fan of Twitter and similar services. I am not interested in knowing if my friend is taking a bath or eating breakfast or is getting a massage. In spite of that I see definite potential in Pownce. There are two things that makes it stand out.
Arrow Ability to send files to a single person, to a group or to everyone in my buddy list.
Arrow Similarly you can send messages, links and event updates to a single person, to a group or to everyone.

Pownce is mainly web based however a light-weight desktop module based on Adobe’s Apollo (AIR) is also available.
I am not going to review it in detail but if you are interested you should check out Mashable and Webware‘s coverage.

Pownce is still very young and I expect a lot more from it in the future. If you want to try it, just leave a comment here requesting an invitation. Make sure that you provide your proper email address, Pownce doesn’t like temporary email providers. I have six invites left.

P.S. : Thanks to The Witness Exchange for inviting me to Pownce.

All Invites have been used up. If you are still looking for a Pownce invite, try your luck at one of these blogs.

    It’s interesting that you say that. A lot of people in digg seem to hate pownce, even though most of them havent yet tried it. Have a look at this article by Mashable : Rise of the Rose Bashers?

    The closed beta system was popularised by Gmail and is now being used by a heck of a lot of statups to build up hype.

    Pownce has the potential to become really good and the best part is that the creators are planning to add more features and make improvements.

    P.S If Pallab doesn’t have any more invites left come over to my blog … I have a few left 😀
