Among many things that I do, I also try to make time to test out some of the new online services that are made available. Pownce is a service that has been in beta for some time and just recently opened their doors to the public. It’s an online service that allows you to send stuff to your friends online.

What can you send, you might ask?

Just about anything. Music, links, photos, messages, events to your friends and even to the general public.

It’s a software that seemlessly integrates into your existing social networks (it offers support for Facebook, Digg, Twitter, and Flickr, and also allows you to search your email contacts to find others who might already be utilizing Pownce).

The application of this is great if you’re wanting to send various things to a lot of people but don’t have the time to keep up with the different email addresses of your friends.

For those that have been following the service, it was rumored that it was headed for its end shortly before their public launch. You can read more about it on Techcrunch here and here

Also, note that Leah Culver is the lead developer on the project who is also in my blogroll.
