2Peer.com - Your Own Private Internet

You want to share files with friends and family but still keep it secure, safe and private. 2Peer gives users the ability to do just that. 2Peer advertises itself as a place where people can create their own private internet to be in control of who they are sharing files with. You only have to download and install the free 2PeerDesktop to sign up and search for friends who are already on 2Peer. You can also send invitations to others to join the 2Peer service so that you can chat, share or browse content among friends. There also is no limit on upload speed or file size. 2Peer also offers a download of 2PeerWeb which is a web-based design tool created only for downloading files while on the go. The site clearly explains the features of both downloads and what the differences are between them.

"2Peer lets you create your own Private Internet; a place where you can communicate and share with your friends - and only your friends! Using 2Peer, you can share files with your trusted contacts directly from your computer - privately and securely. There is no limit on upload speed or file sizes. There is no third party intervention. You are always in control."

As it’s advertised as a private internet, 2Peer achieves its goal of allowing users to upload and share files all within the realm of your own personal control. However, it’ll be hard to convince others to join yet another social networking site only for the purpose of securely sharing files. Also, 2Peer has a tab for Download and another for Features which display the exact same information.

How can the creators fix the tabs so that they contain different information? How can others encourage the usage of 2Peer? How successful is the tool?
