Pownce.comThe team behind the wildly successfull digg.com and Revision3 returns - with Pownce. Rumors have been circulating that Kevin Rose and crew were working on a new startup and after reviewing Mike Arrington’s post it seems as if they are on track for another star performer.

Pownce is a web-based messaging system (a desktop client, built on Adobe AIR will be available) that makes it easy to send messages, files, files, and events. There are some basic social networking features included that you can see on Kevin’s Pownce profile.

Pownce is currently in private beta - I’ve applied for an invite but if anyone has one to spare it would be much appreciated. I can’t wait to try this out.
