[ Networks ] A Torrent Client

Thursday night at JavaOne 2006, a very good friend recommended Azureus as a bit torrent client.

I've been trying it in the last couple of days and am quite happy with it as a tool to learn more about torrents, P2P and content sharing.

The edge of the network has become an interesting ground for innovative applications as P2P has taken off (again?).

Azureus provides a nice GUI with information on "peers," "swarm," "pieces," as well as statistics on "activity," "tranfers," "cache" and "distributed database."
