Yesterday, Kevin Rose of Digg, along with Daniel Burka, Leah Culver, and Shawn Allen, releases their latest project: Pownce. But what is Pownce? It’s Twitter, IM, and File-sharing all rolled into one great service.

Once you create your account you can add other people as friends. And then, you send messages, files, links, and events to one person, multiple people, or everybody. It brings some of the great features of services like Twitter and combines them with new features that we have yet to see.

Pownce is both a web and desktop application. Pownce make’s use of Adobe’s AIR interface to bring web functionality right to the desktop in a small, well-designed application.

The downside is Pownce is currently invite-only, as it is still only in the early stages of development. I have yet to get an invite and really test it out, but once I do I’ll post my impressions.

Something to say?
