StreamTorrent for Mac (CrossOver 11)

First of all, thanks to the CodeWeavers team for creating a simple solution to port applications to the Mac. Please support them by purchasing CrossOver through their site at CodeWeavers.com.

I've created a CrossOver 11 bottle that you can simply install on your mac for access to StreamTorrent.
Download it here.

To install it, from CrossOver, select Configure > Manage Bottles from the menu, then select "Add from Archive".

If all you get is a black screen, StreamTorrent is working, but for one reason or another WMP will not open.  To view your stream, let ST buffer for some time, then open VLC, select File > Open Network... and open http://127.0.0.1:15900/1.asf

Happy streaming!

Brief thoughts on the Facebook IPO

According to reports, the Facebook IPO is generating 421 million shares valued at $38 USD per share.  Monthly, there are estimated to be 800 million active users of the site, valuing your profile and the information contained within at...
Roughly $20.

Would you not be willing to subscribe to the service at a cost of $20/yr in exchange for an adless, guaranteed-private social networking experience?

Just a thought.
