This is neat. I've been meaning to do something like it myself for fun. I'd be far more interested in one that just let's you drop a file and gives you a URL for your friend to visit with no other steps. Having one of these services that does the transfer directly peer to peer without accounts or setup steps would be great.

I think http://sharefest.peer5.com/ is actually exactly that.

Yes! That's a great execution of this.

Sendoid was doing this with Adobe Air P2P two years ago - but sadly not very well and they aren't around anymore.

I hope webrtc does better with NAT.

P2P doesnt really work with URLs though as you need to be online for the recieving end to get your file. Some traditional filesharing/upload site would work better in that case imo.

For a P2P scenario it makes sense to have something like a chatroom.

Of course but that's not a big deal if you can see when the transfer to your friend completed.
