Re: [CGUYS] sxsw
I saw the interview a couple days after hearing about the debacle. I used to get some of her twitters, but she is as enamored with herself as she seemed with Zuckerberg. I've been torrenting sxsw music since I sent this email out, it's really slow. I always expect some slowness due to the nature of dsl, but I'm crawling around with this download this time. Hopefully you have better luck. Seed. Seed. Seed, if you can.

Hey Mike, thanks for this tip. I may have to finally torrent something. XM's The Verge channel covered it last year and yes, there were a ton of new artists, some of which were worth listening to! (They had veterans Naked Raygun (!) there last year.) SXSW is one of the better excuses to go and visit Austin. It is about more than music though; it also covers the technology and culture behind music. Just for larfs, you have to check out (if you haven't seen it already) this train-wreck of an interview with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg by a self absorbed and smitten interviewer. It's like watching a tipsy mom hitting on her teenage son's friend. http://tinyurl.com/awjpvl * ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *

Re: [CGUYS] sxsw
it is a fast way to download as the file you get comes in multiple parts simultaneously (torrents) and is assembled as it goes along ...in return for that, your part is to let the file be simultaneously uploaded to others who request it ...I do it sometimes ...there are stand alone torrent clients to acomplish this, but I have chosen the lazy man way to this end as Opera browser has the bittorrent client built in for free and, if active (there is a toggle in the prefs), it works just like any download. Once the download is done, it shows "sharing" in place of "in progress" and, if you close the browser, it will resume the get but NOT resume the share. Very nice. -Original Message- From: Judy Cosler [mailto:jfcos...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, March 13, 2009 12:20 PM Subject: Re: sxsw what is a 'torrent'???

I know this isn't quite a computer topic but it does relate to digital music so.. The South by Southwest music festival takes place soon and this link is to torrents to download almost 6 gigs of music to fill up your ipod...or really cheap player you may regret buying. I got all of it last year and after spending much time going through it, I found quite a lot that was good and expect the same this year, so if you are into music and want to put a whole lot of it on your ipod at once this is a great chance to do so. http://sites.google.com/site/sxsw2009torrent/ torrent - download - seed. * ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *
