Embodiments of the present invention can provide means of publicly sharing large files of personal and limited interest over a network. Pursuant to these embodiments, a file possessed by a peer on a network, is shared with another peer on the network by fragmenting the file into data blocks smaller than the original file and transferring these data blocks to other peers on the network where a recipient peer searches for and downloads them.
