Send a file of any size to anyone, for free.
Pando is a free software application that lets users send and receive files and folders of any size (up to 1 GB) with their existing e-mail address. Yaron Samid, VP of Products, demonstrated how the underlying BitTorrent technology results in incredibly fast uploads and downloads. In addition, Yaron showed off the drag, drop and send functionality inherent in the application, and even the available plug-ins, including one for Microsoft Outlook. If you’d like to try Pando for yourself, please visit www.pando.com. And thanks for sharing.

If you want to play a burned CD in your car, finalize it
When you burn a CD on your computer, many programs ask if you want to finalize it. Or, when you click to record a CD, you might be given the option of writing and finalizing the CD.

Finalizing writes extra data to the disc so it can be played in standalone players. It helps the players understand what is on the CD.

So, you may or may not want to finalize your CDs. If you're creating music CDs for your car, finalize them. But, if you're putting data on a CD and it isn't full, you may not want to finalize it.
