No special code or permission to jump in and play with the app is necessary. There's now also downloading of photos in full resolution, a full screen slide show (faux screensaver), auto detection of audio and photo files with photo collections and sharing with your friends looming just around the corner.</p> The private beta period is over at this point.

It will be obviously difficult to do a apple for apple comparison with Soonr. But what about Avvenu and in many ways Nutsie?

Again Avvenu does not have a mobile access point yet, but Nutsie works from the mobile too. Also Nutsie does not need the songs to be uploaded either (though I wonder how much more difficult that can get for them to include). Similarly I wonder how long would Avvenu take to include mobile access to their version of resource remote access.

I think the future is not about just song or document sharing, its got to be more than that for things to be useful.

Soonr is a more likely candidate to move ahead as it seems to have the right combination of things (except songs!).

WeBot is way too innocent right now :-)
It will have to reach a much higher level of maturity to really stand out in this crowded world.

What do you think?
