Red Swoosh: Red Swoosh is dedicated to providing zero-cost file and video delivery. Red Swoosh accomplishes this by incorporating best of breed P2P technology where users download and stream files from each other, rather than from webservers. The end result is that your site saves money on bandwidth while improving your users‘ download speeds.
Wie das geht?
1. A website swooshes its links by adding http://edn.redswoosh.net to the front of its video and large file URLs.
2. User clicks on a swooshed link, and is prompted to install Red Swoosh client if he/she has not previously done so.
3. Upon completion of installation, user is immediately redirected to the original content.
4. The download and stream looks just like before but the content is actually coming from up to 30 different peers that have previously downloaded or streamed content.
5. All future swooshed links appear as normal downloads and video streams, except that the vast majority of data is pulled from peers instead of servers.
So charmant die Idee, eine Riesenhürde dürfte der notwendige Download einer Software sein. Klar, wie soll man es auch sonst lösen bei einem P2P-System. Aber dennoch, könnte bei bestimmten Filegrößen durchaus eine Option sein, wenn man davon ausgehen kann, dass der User unbedingt das File will. Und, um das zu finanzieren, will Red Swoosh Banner einblenden.
