New P2P Filesharing App

[HolyLiaison]

I've started a new P2P filesharing program, lots and lots of cool features. And when the official site launches there will be a contest, the winner given a 120GB hard drive. Check it all out at:

http://www.swapciety.com
http://www.swapciety.net
http://www.swapciety.org

So keep a look out. :)

BTW, you might beable to get a head start on the contest, and other events going on durring/before the site launch if you join our IRC chatroom.

That should be "kick-ass"! If it really does connect to all those networks, this app might really become a biggie in the near future.
I have some question to ask, but since you say on the site that you can´t answer many of them for now, I´ll leave them for a later date...

[HolyLiaison]

I'm willing to awnser certain questions, just not "whenz this going to be released d00d!" and whatnot. :)

I'll also be awnsering questions in IRC, or through AIM, untill I get swammped that is. But untill then you're free to ask anything.

It will be out when it´s out, right?

What I´m curious about is how it connects to all those networks...does it connect to the WHOLE network or just part of it (like iMesh does with FastTrack, for example)?
Will it support all file types? Multi-source d/l´s? d/l resume?

Oh, and no offence, but will it have any kind of ad/spyware?

Anyway, looking forward to it! Thanx!

You'll have the option to connect to each network as a whole, or part. Due to bandwith limitations some people are under, connecting to each network as a whole would kill your bandwith instantly.

As for file support? It supports anything you want it to support. Multi source downloads/resume? Of course. I mean, how could you live downloading a huge file off some 56k'er (sorry guys) and being stuck with him and having him get disconnected, and having to start all over again wondering if you'll get another connection.

Oh almost forgot, no....NO.....AHH, no spyware. God no. This project is 100% opensource, once it's finished. I will also be posting new ideas I have for P2P filesharing so all you g33ky c0ders can use them in your own projects, due to the fact I have limited time to program. I would like to see how other people implement the ideas in to their own master peices.

Long live P2P filesharing. :bling

Thanx, man!

2 last questions, if you can :
How does it connect to the Chat/IM apps? Is it like Trillian?
Does it have an integrated Media manager/player?

Also, I hope it forces ppl to share, since I HATE leeches!

I´m really curious, since I have tried practically all P2P apps and still haven´t found one that satisfies me completely (I use KaZaA w/ Diet Kaza, Blubster and SoulSeek).

[HolyLiaison]

Well since the sites not going to be up for a few more days I thought I'd give you guys an inside scoop on most the feature Swapciety is going to include. Now, before you click the link, there's something you must know:

This list is NOT all of the features. Thank you, come again. :)

I just typed it up in Word. Probably missing some of the features, but I think I got most of the important ones.

It does enforce a 1 slot minimum for sharing. You can adjust the bandwith allowed for this slot though.

You could say the implementation of the IM's is like Trillian. But there are some additions also. :)

[stephen_sterritt]

[Gicapster]

I think i'm really gonna like this program, looks like/it is a universal sharing app and trillian in 1 program, that's cool :D

I hope it gets edonkey support too :)

This sounds pretty promising......but I was wondering, could you implement where it could connect to some content rich networks like eDonkey, OpenNap, and OverNet? Then it WOULD REALLY kick ass!

[jabba|xtra]

Sounds cool, but what are you going to do when the bigger networks that have closed protocols, start getting after you? Also, how does it connect to kazaa (fasttrack)? Is it just port scanner like that other program, KaZearch?
