this is only a test

In an attempt to address the crappy upstream bandwidth I have, I am thinking about switching over to using BitTorrent. Upload bandwidth will be crappy for the first couple of people who download, but will get better for each successive person *assuming you all leave your torrent files open* for as long as possible (days, maybe weeks). Check out their web page or their Wikipedia entry for more information about how it works. As a test, I'm making the last November archive available by BitTorrent now: the Vinyl Frontier, 30 November 2004 [playlist] If you download the file, please email me at torrent AT f a l s e c o g n a t e . o r g and let me know: # whether it works at all # what kind of connection your computer is sitting on # how many peers you are able to connect to # how long you can leave open your torrent files
