I refuse to write about NitroShare because it has absolutely zero
effing documentation. As is, even the Debian packages have *empty*
manpage files. No excuse.

@n8@identi.ca also I'm confused why do we need yet another file transfer option? We have smb,ftp,http,netcat, rsync,nfs, sftp,and on and on, why design yet another one that doesn't even bother to speak the old ones.
NitroShare wont help me get files off an old dos machine. Ftp probably would.

My impression is that many of these HTTP-under-the-hood systems are
optimizing for momentary / unplanned usage. Not for permanent
shares. Like what you do when, for some unknown reason, Bluetooth
is borking out on you and you need to send something to a phone
that doesn't have a USB host port. Which happens to me
periodically. Or when you need to move a file to the machine across
the house but copying it onto your UPnP-connected NFS share is a
problem because all of your DLNA devices will suddenly index
it.
I think FileTea is pretty great for that.
