Seems they travelled a similar path to one of my previous employers, via the ANZATech conference. I’ll leave it as an exercise to the reader to figure out which company that was. Hope it works out better after Demo than it did for the guys from Foursticks :-(
Nice work guys, keen to see the video when it’s up on the Demo website.

Apparently, they’re Australian and doing the whole online “storage” thing, but with a nice twist in that they don’t actually store the files (?) I guess it’s more like mediated file transfer than true online storage? As eg Hamachi is as opposed to a true VPN.

Zingee – an Australian-based company, who claims they’ve traveled the furthest to get to Demo.  They allow you to share files from your computer, without any uploads.  A neat way to preserve your privacy!

Not just me though, apparently Michael Arrington at TechCrunch hadn’t heard of them last week.

I finally got a look at newcomer storage service Zingee, which would have been included on my “Online Storage Gang” post if they had been around.

Trying to find out a bit more, but all I can see is a couple of phone numbers on their site (only one in Sydney), and their profile on the Demo site, which actually lists Singapore contact details.

This is not really surprising, Singapore is a better place to build to flip than Australia according to some accounting folks I’ve worked with.

In any case, this may be another local outfit to watch.
