			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Almost all the websites that allow you to share torrents make it open for the whole world to see. TorsIn takes a different approach by allowing you to keep your torrents private and only sharing it with the people you want. When you use the TorsIn interface to upload a torrent file, it gets uploaded to Torrage.com which is a torrent hosting engine.</p>
<p>You also have the option to choose a custom URL in order to share your torrent. This way your torrent file doesn&#8217;t get listed in lots of public torrent sharing websites. The maximum size allowed for a torrent file here is 1.5MB. The site has a dead simple interface with a much needed functionality.</p>
<p><img src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/dir/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/tors.png?570cd5" alt="tors.in" /></p>
<p>Features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Upload torrent files and keep them private.</li>
<li>Choose a custom URL to share your files.</li>
<li>Files get uploaded to Torrage or Zoink.</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Finding, downloading, and playing videos have evolved in the past ten years. Before, getting videos from a DVD rental store was enough, but now we have torrents, video streaming services like YouTube, paid streaming like Netflix and Hulu, and RSS to keep us more than occupied. However, desktop apps have not caught up to these trends in terms of providing a seamless and integrated experience for sourcing and watching media.</p>
<p><img src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/dir/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/noow1.png?570cd5" alt="open source video player" /></p>
<p>Noow is an all-in-one desktop media player that hopes to become your one true solution for media management. This app does lots of things &#8211; it downloads torrents, download videos off YouTube, handle file conversions, manage podcasts, organize your playlists, and more.</p>
<p>This Windows-only app combines a sleek user interface with a tapestry of features. It has its own browser so you can browse and download videos from YouTube and Hulu with the videos going directly to your playlist. Likewise, you can search for and download torrents, which also feeds to the playlist once downloaded.</p>
<p>Podcast integration lets you do away with standalone podcast catchers, since Noow can index and feed the episodes to your playlist. If you have an Android or iOS device, you can perform file conversions for your devices straight from the app.</p>
<p>Noow&#8217;s strongest point is that it can replace the functions of 5-6 separate desktop apps. Whether its functionalities are better than using standalone apps is up for debate, but it is a welcome sight to see an app that keeps up with the times in terms of desktop media experience.</p>
<p>Features:</p>
<ul>
<li>All in one video player.</li>
<li>Open source.</li>
<li>Combined playlist manager for videos and audio.</li>
<li>Other video sources that are included by default are Hulu, PBS, YouTorrent and ClearBits.</li>
<li>Podcast integration.</li>
<li>Preset conversion for iOS and Android.</li>
<li>Torrent search and client tool.</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When it comes to sharing large files online with friends, we often turn to file hosting websites. These sites however store your files on their server and provide slow download speeds. To get a faster and more secure solution to sharing large files online, check out a service called Sendoid.</p>

<p><img src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/dir/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/sendoid.png?570cd5" alt="share large files easily" /></p>
<p>Sendoid is a free online service that offer simple peer-to-peer file sharing between you and your friends. The site’s online interface works in a very simple way: you point the site to a file stored on your computer and a download link is generated. When you share this link with friends and they visit it, a download of the file is initiated directly from your computer to your friend’s. You and your friends must keep the Sendoid browser window open for the download to progress otherwise it will store.</p>
<p>The files are only passed through the site after encryption without any information being stored on the server. To increase security you can set up a password for your files that friends will need to enter for the download to begin.</p>
<p>Sendoid’s browser interface allows sharing files sized up to 1GB. To remove this limit you can get Sendoid’s free desktop application that works according to the same principle and offers direct online sharing of large files.</p>
<p>Features:</p>
<ul>
<li>A user-friendly website.</li>
<li>Lets you share large files online.</li>
<li>Provides a browser interface as well as a desktop app.</li>
<li>Does not store your files on the server.</li>
<li>Encrypts your files during transfer.</li>
<li>Lets you password protect your files.</li>

<p>BitMate is a free torrent client for Windows computers. Its setup file is nearly 20MB and is based on Vuze. The creators of the client spent nearly 2 years tweaking with the torrent settings to find out what provided maximum speeds on slow Internet connections. On slow connections, researchers have found that low bandwidth connections can experience as much as a 70% boost in download speeds. The client achieves this without cheating or adversely affecting the performance of higher bandwidth peers.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_hash_table">DHT</a> (Distributed Hash Table) is a technology that eliminates the role of a central tracker when it comes to peer to peer file sharing. That means that using DHT, one could directly download a file from a peer computer without going through a tracker. BTDigg is a search engine that uses DHT network to find and index torrents which could then be searched and downloaded. The interface is tasteless to say the least, and the results aren&#8217;t too encouraging either. But it could be useful for torrent hunters who know how to find their way around such tools.</p>
<p><img src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/dir/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/btdigg.png?570cd5" alt="trackerless torrent" /></p>
<p>As you can see in the screenshot above, it&#8217;s a simple black and green user interface which shows results in green and orange reminding you of the days when rich colors on the screen were non-existent. But the search engine is unique in the sense that it uses the technology that no other torrent search app has tried yet.</p>
<p>Features</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are several reasons why every power user loves torrents. They are very fast, flexible in the <a class="vt-p" href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/7-apps-to-make-most-of-torrents/">many ways you can download torrents</a>, and mostly free. On the flip side, the biggest annoyance with torrent clients is how you have to go to different websites to download the torrent file that you need since there is no built-in search bar. Enter Ultratorrent, a torrent program that integrates a search engine within its interface to show the best torrents available online to download and run instantly.</p>
<p><img src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/dir/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/101_thumb7.png?570cd5" alt="ultratorrent" /></p>
<p>Using Ultratorrent is very easy, and its light disk footprint is similar to the popular uTorrent. The interface is very basic, much like running a web app within a torrent client.</p>
<p>To start, enter your search query in the text field to find torrents. You will then get results in a table from popular torrent providers like IsoHunt, Mininova, Torrenthound, and Bitjunkie. Table columns include information like file size, seeds, leechers, number of files, and date.  Sort and filter the table columns to help you find the exact torrent that you need. Then just double click a torrent that you like to bring it to your downloads list and run the torrent. You can also run multiple searches using the convenient tabbed interface.</p>
<p>With the exception of the integrated search, Ultratorrent is pretty much the normal fare &#8211; you can run multiple downloads simultaneously, resume downloads and the options are pretty straightforward under the hood. It lacks the number of customizations that power users prefer. But what it lacks in customizations is made up with speed and small memory.</p>
<p><img src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/dir/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/102_thumb2.png?570cd5" alt="ultratorrent" /></p>
<p>Ultratorrent may not also be ideal for people who need to check on the integrity of the torrent file they are downloading. However, if you need a quick and easy way to download torrents without opening a browser, then Ultratorrent is a cool addition to your downloading tools.</p>
<p>Features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Torrent client with integrated search.</li>
<li>View last 5 searches.</li>
<li>Run multiple searches with the tabbed interface.</li>
<li>Light memory footprint.</li>
<li>Easy-to-use interface.</li>
<li>Sort and filter results from torrent providers.</li>
<li>Up to 7 languages supported.</li>
</ul>
