Many parents will agree that when it comes to understanding and adopting new technology, they can learn a thing or two, or even three, from their teenage kids. I have such a person in my own home, who spends hours on the PC, trawling for new and free software from the Internet. And one such software which I found fascinating is LimeWire, which downloads from the Internet at warp speed. Well, not warp, but faster than some of the software we have been using for a while. The fun part of LimeWire is that its open-source-based, and the Basic version of LimeWire is free.
So, here’s the deal with LimeWire: It is an advanced file-sharing client/server software which connects computing devices over public and private networks. Lime Wire is scalable serverless networking software that enables entities on the internet to share, search for, and obtain files via the Gnutella Network.
According to a posting on the company's web site, Lime Wire will eventually enable content-serving entities on a peer-to-peer network to respond to queries with dynamically generated, real-time information. Search requestors will be able to query and draw data directly from one or more databases, without having to navigate through several bulky web interfaces. Search requestors will also be able to communicate with multiple computers simultaneously, and preselect the type and form of information they will receive in response to their requests. Till that happens, I am happy with the speed with which stuff can be download — songs and videos and movies.
