Overview:
  
  BitTorrent is a peer-to-peer protocol designed for distributing large
files efficiently across the Internet. Originally intended to distribute
Linux ISOs, BitTorrent now accounts for anywhere from a fourth to a half
of all web traffic.  This week we will cover the basics of the
BitTorrent protocol, compare various popular Linux torrent clients, and
take an in-depth look at the RTorrent client.

Upcoming presentations and events:
  
  2010.09.15:  Music Tagging
  2010.09.18:  Installfest 45
  2010.09.22:  Basic CLI Usage
  2010.09.29:  Neat Tricks Roundtable

Hope to see you there!
