sexy way to file share...
 

I came across the most novel UI for a file sharing application.

Minitasking.

It allows you to find and download music or movies from gnutella, using a visual medium. The bigger a blip the bigger the ammount of files its holding.

Random file names are what others are searching. Right clicking any where in the view pane, will allow you type in a search term.

You can grab Minitasking at http://www.minitasking.com/
Its free, and by that I also mean spyware free.

I think more people developing p2p apps should look to diffrent ways of representing a UI.

Minitasking is a bet heavy on the cpu though, so a fast machine is a must.

Here is how things looked for my search of "madonna"...

Thanks for the link, Ethen! :tu:

I definitely agree: visualizing p2p environment in cool ways adds a whole new dimension to the p2p experience. The way to go. :ND:

Very interesting indeed...but why didn't I find it first. ;( :)

You were too preoccupied on the big boobie site :BL:

That was a low blow...I mean you did a job on me...I mean better quit now! :CG:

Hahahahahaha :D

Its missing one important feature. A menu bar.

Upon use once I figured out all the 10,000 commands it has, its a good little app.

Tons of things you can do. While the UI is neat, using visual representation, the biggest draw back is not having a menu bar up top where you can acess all the features easily.

Stick some kinda a menu bar along the top, and make a few more refinements, and it would be a very good program. Now it just needs to acess a better network ;/
