i have begun a new experiment in filesharing. it’s called aim2share, and is currently implemented through a yahoo group, found here . it is based around a large community of AIM users who use the filesharing feature which is built into AIM. it is meant to be a directory of people who willingly share files over AIM, so that they may find others who do the same. it has a message board where people can talk to others and request files, and a database table for easy access to everyone’s screen names. so, try it out, tell people about it. the more traffic it gets, the better it will be for everyone involved.
Wouldn’t this be an extremely bad idea? Letting people access your HD and get whatever they want. AIM isn’t very secure…They could do so much crap.
Exactly what type of files would you be sharing that are not available on a P2P? And wouldn’t it be extremely unwise to list your name and the fact that you want to download something of that nature (I have my doubts everything you want to download is legal) on a publicly viewed internet page?
