A Day in the Sun for Skoot
· Posted Wednesday June 6, 2007 by jamie
Skoot, the large file transfer software that has essentially been the constant focus of my day job for about the past year and a half, is getting a day in the sun today with the launch of TroopSkoot, a program to allow soldiers and their families to use the service for free.
As always seems to be the case with any news coverage, I have a few quibbles with the details, but it’s nice to have it out there and see some press for something that I had a big part in creating.
Here is a bit of the coverage in the news and blogs:
- KOMO TV (with video)
- The News Tribune
- Business Examiner Daily
- Tacoma Tech Connect blog
- Living and Working in a Virtual World blog
I also want to plug the free trial available for anyone who wants to give Skoot a try. It is available for both Windows and Mac OS X. Just head to SkootIt.com and give it a shot.

I was wondering if this was the software solution you were working on. It is always a great feeling to ship a product and see it in use. I hope we hear more great things about Topia, Skoot and the TroopSkoot project in the weeks to come.
