Those who want to share files using the popular BitTorrent
file-sharing protocol, and who also want to enjoy the social
networking benefits of the Internet, should give Torrent Swapper a
try. It's unique among BitTorrent clients in that it integrates
getting recommendations from others--and giving recommendations to
them--inside simple-to-use file sharing software.
The software makes it simple to find "friends" with whom you can
share recommendations, and then easily download what they
recommend. The software lets you put these recommendations to good
use, so that you can, for example, only download files that have
reached a certain rating level.
Note that you don't use this software to actually search for files;
for that, go to any BitTorrent search site, or choose File -->
Search Torrent from the program's menu to go to a search site. But
finding files to download is easy enough with a client; where this
program shines is in its ability to connect you with others to
share recommendations. Also, keep in mind that you'll need to open
a port in your firewall in order for Torrent Swapper.
