Making Freenet Find Stuff Faster
Sanity writes "Many probably saw the recent announcement of Freenet 0.5.2. This release represented a vast amount of work - primarily in reducing Freenet's CPU and memory requirements. However, streamlining Freenet's current functionality isn't all we've been working on. I just finished an article that describes the most fundamental improvement to Freenet's core algorithm since its original design over three years ago, it is called "Next Generation Routing" and has the potential to dramatically increase the speed with which Freenet retrieves information. It could even make Freenet faster than the World Wide Web in many circumstances, all without compromizing anonymity and while remaining immune to the /. effect."
"immune to the /. effect."
:-)
If this isn't a challange I don't know what is

The /. effect is like a worm which infects every network on the face of this planet..
> ... and while remaining immune to the /. effect
Said the author of the slashdotted article.
You know what'd be really impressive? Finding a way to make FreeNet slower. It'd be so slow you could make a Beowulf cluster of FreeNet nodes and use it as a time machine. Personally, I'd use it to go back to Ian Clarke's dorm room and convince him to get drunk and high rather than wasting his life making a P2P system that will be useful around the same time we have to start worrying about being censored by the United Federation of Planets. But that's just me.
Making freenet find stuff faster
How about saying making freenet find stuff faster five times fast?
muahuahahu
Excuse me, I don't mean to impose, but I am the ocean
Slashdot is The Matrix!
Slashdotters are just the mindless people living out their lives in bliss. If you are a slashdotter, you are one of them and we can't trust you.
Knock Knock Freenet! The Matrix has you!
Here it is, The Matrix, but with AOL/M$/etc...and I wanted to see one with CowboyNeal as agent Smith, and Timothy and Michael as the other two agents, then the CmdrTaco robot releases the twins (NEOs; Penny Arcade) while American Greetings Sentinels seek and destroy...but the above URL will do just fine, for a slashdotting...mua-ha-ha-ha...
Dammit, I hate it when I miss things.
See? It's working already
If that's true, any ISP or network administrator should immediately think twice about running that Cisco router. Who knows what stuff it's routing!

Ok, so I did all of that when I set it up...
Now the question all the new freenetters really want answered, is - after installing, configuring and letting run for a while.... How do I get some porn off the nextwork? Is there a cache of keys on the netsomewhere that I need to be able to find or what? Is there a crawler app that just keeps track of what it knows it's run across and builds it's own little directory??????
Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

Funny that Windows users have to click on rabbits while Linux users run a script.
Is it really that necessary to insult the Windows users' intelligence by not including a batch file?

Does matter, given that the intelligence of Windows users is insulted every day by Windows itself ?

If you download porn, the spyware programmed into Freenet will foward your IP to the RIAA, FBI, NSA, and then post it to a few hacking/warez newsgroups and forums.
Freenet is NOT a pornster program.
If you use Linux, please help development of Autopac
Lets see if we can use them all...
Freenet is now being 'fixed' like a leaky faucet is fixed.
The RIAA wants the digitial audio/video market 'fixed' like a crooked horse race is fixed.
With the new Freenet the RIAA is about to be 'fixed' like your dog at the vet's is fixed.
I think that about covers it.
It's Christmas everyday with BitTorrent.

N Grouting? Does that mean I can seal my bathtub remotely? Cool feature!
""If you make it, they will come""

Isn't that pretty much the mantra of porn?
