  1. Kinda like Aimster (Oops!) by siliconjunkie · · Score: 1 · on Former AOLers Bet on Private P2P App

    Oops...

    The whole concept sounds a lot like Aimster. I never used Aimster (because i havent used the AIM application since Trillian became available), but as I remember it, it was an application that "piggybacked" on AIM and allowed you to have filesharing circle with anyone on your buddy list. This "Grouper" thing just seems to run with that idea to me. Aimster ran into legal trouble and became Madster.

  3. Madster by yerricde · · Score: 1 · on P2P Contact Info Service From Napster Co-Founder

    But someday someone is gonna figure out that the best way to share files is with people you know, which means people in your address book. Build a P2P system on that and you're sorted.

    Want contact list based P2P file sharing? Try Madster.

  4. Is she real? by Azathoth!EDC · · Score: 3, Interesting · on Aimee Deep Interview

    What nobody seems to have pointed out are that the two images of "Aimee Deep" - one on Madster.com, and one on MusicPundit.com - don't look like the same person!

    I'd give my stuffed Tux Penguin to see a flick with Amy in it.

  9. Re:This is just flat out *wrong* by Evro · · Score: 2, Insightful · on Lineo near Death

    Yeah, I've had this happen to me, and it's really criminal. Unfortunately, the people who get screwed don't usually have the money to get an attorney so basically they're SOL AFAICT. When they did it to me I was suicidal - I was already in debt and then magically, nobody got paid, and nobody offered any explanation for 2 more weeks. Meanwhile, they shifted all the corporations' assets around so that the one who originally signed our paychecks had no assets, but the stuff we worked on for months is still theirs.

    Makes you appreciate disgruntled employees' actions more when it happens to you.

  10. Madster is P2P search, but not anonymous by yerricde · · Score: 1 · on Greene's Grammy Speech Debunked

    Can you use AIM to search for files?

    Last time I checked, the software formerly known as Aimster allowed searching your buddies' file lists.
