BitTorrent Inc. just released a new standalone file-sharing application called “Share.” The application aims to make it easier for tech novices to share large files with friends, without having to get familiar with all the BitTorrent customs and lingo. Share will eventually be integrated into BitTorrent’s flagship client uTorrent.
They are quite rare events but on occasion, artists actually encourage fans to share their music online. Singer Joss Stone has no problem doing so at all. In fact, after a recent concert in Argentina she said that piracy is “brilliant”.
Allpeers is names “Guidewire Group Global Innovator” and invited to present the BitTorrent extension for Firefox at the Innovate!Europe event. Allpeers, started sending out invitations for their BETA program a couple of days ago.
