		<description><![CDATA[hay id like to see carracho get some love, it was big on the mac back around the time off hotline till the mid 2000&#039;s at least.
it was almost the only option for mac users for a long time for file transferees especially for people using OS9 (i dont think bittorent ever got on to OS9 unless you compiled it yourself, yep that was fun for a mac user to do :P ) .
i spent a lot of time chatting to friends back in the day on carracho.

		<description><![CDATA[ Don&#039;t believe what you hear from those Zeitgeist kooks.  They&#039;re wrong about 9/11.  Their claims about religion are dubious.  Most importantly, their overpopulation fearmongering and their demonization of money will lead to disaster if most people ever start to believe that crap.  The truth is that the world is underpopulated and the most serious problem we face is is low birth rates.  If we don&#039;t increase our birth rate, we are going to have a population that is majority elderly before too long (Japan will be first to reach that dubious distinction, followed by Europe, with the USA having the best chance of saving ourselves).  That means that we won&#039;t be able to afford to provide the services for the elderly that are necessary for them to maintain a decent life.  That also means that it will be politically impossible to eliminate those services, meaning that people of working age won&#039;t have a decent life either.

The problem is that many people wrongly associate &quot;intellectual property&quot; with real property.  Intellectual property is a government-granted monopoly that creates artificial scarcity.  Real property is based on real scarcity that is an eternal fact of life.  If there was no scarcity, the price of every good would fall to $0, provided that the government did nothing to artificially prop up prices.  The invention of money is the best invention in all of human history because it allows people to trade a universally accepted good for whatever they wish to acquire.  In the absence of money, we would revert back to a barter economy where we would be unable to trade except when both parties each wanted the good that the other party had to trade more than the one that they would have to give up.  The problem is when the amount of money in circulation is not kept static, but is instead artificially increased.  That leads to bad investments (economic booms) and to busts when those bad investments fail.  That also leads to rampant money-lending, which burdens people with debt.

The solution to our economic problems is simple.  Just prevent the amount of money from increasing (the best way to do that is to back the currency by some good such as gold or silver) and get rid of monopolies that create artificial scarcity.  The difficult part is addressing the birth rate problem.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Per the Wiki article on E-Mail, I would also note the file sharing origins of E-Mail.  In the early 1970s, Ray Tomlinson updated an existing utility called SNDMSG so that it could copy messages (as files) over the network. Lawrence Roberts,
 the project manager for the ARPANET development, took the idea of 
READMAIL, which dumped all &quot;recent&quot; messages onto the user&#039;s terminal, 
and wrote a program for TENEX in TECO macros called RD which permitted accessing individual messages.[39] Barry Wessler then updated RD and called it NRD.  Basically, e-mail is a way of sharing files across a network, store &amp; forward these files, and control access to these files.

Also, we should include the Remote File Storage/Sharing services and the various backup services.
