PeerFactor, an IT french company, release Monday a revolutionary download system for webmasters.
Theoricaly, it will be possible for webmasters to deliver 1 million videos (700Mo) within 10 minutes. And it will be free for them.
To achieve their performance results, PeerFactor use a tiny (70Ko) P2P client and they organize downloads with RSS, mailing lists and sophisticated mathematical algorithms based on users statistics.
This way, they manage to have more and more resources as more and more users share the content.
For Internet users, the system is as simple as a traditional http download. And it handles very well users from any operating system (Linux, Mac,…).
A RSS content feed is already available and allows to test the system : http://www.peerfactor.fr/hd/rss/peerfactor.rss
I don’t think I have ever had an edit button on any of my comments
On topic: I think this sounds cool I know I would use it if it takes off
meyou123 don’t you have an edit button below your comment?
@lehk…..I meant why DON’T you wait until people have actually tried it first….this stupid remarks column does not have a way to go back and edit your statements once you post them if you make a mistake.
@lehk….how can you say that when you have no idea what you are talking about? This is a BRAND NEW app…nobody really knows much about it aside from the developers. Why do you wait until people have actually tried it first THEN make a judgement based on what users have to say?
They have opened the whole site :

this seems like bittorrent working in theory-land
in reality-land it will fall apart.
wow I know that this has been talked about for some time so it’d be cool if they figured out to really harness it finally. I don’t know much about internet protocols and stuff but this sounds like bittorent on steroids. This could also be a step towards anonymous p2p if this and a freenet type architecture could be combined there’d be no stopping it. I want to hear what some of our resident technical experts here at zeropaid have to say.
I have to find out more about this. Unfortunately the link is dead..
